He was landing from a jump, which gave him downward momentum. He was still struggling to get a handle on the ball and was reaching down to secure it. Both caused his head to lower. This is why the receiver is considered a defenseless player.
In comparison all the defender has to do is avoid a helmet to helmet collision. Sounds easier than it is, but its 100x easier than it is for the offensive player to avoid it.
