illegal contact is touching the WR after 5 yards... the clearest example is how CBs used to keep their hand on the WR shoulder to keep track of where they were (champ did it a lot), which didn't really affect the WRs route.

pass interence is interfering with their ability to catch a ball, by throwing them to the ground, pushing them, tripping them, etc.
