For example, in 2K14 if the ball deflects off of a defender on an inbounds pass and then it hits the passer (who is still out of bounds), this results in it being called out off of the passing team. This is a flagrant misunderstanding of the out of bounds rule, and I am shocked that it wasn't caught during development.

That's why you can't hit a player that's off of the field, and why a wide receiver can't just run out of bounds and then run back in for a catch. Out of bounds doesn't contain live players.
Even though this feller is banned, just for the record, he is incorrect (as others such as oj already insinuated). 2K has this ruling correct already.
