About that blocked punt...

On the blocked punt something occurred that I was unsure of: the defender on the right side (who blocked it) initiated his block on Wilkins by lowering his helmet and hitting hitting him right in the helmet (head).  It knocked Wilkins back and off balance.  Are helmet-to-helmet or spearing rules only applicable to defenseless receivers or QB's?  It seems that the possibility of inflicting an injury is higher on this play than it would be brushing a QB's helmet with a hand.
