They do indeed; if the ball is carried into or rolls into the end zone after being touched by the punting team it's a TB. Had he stopped anywhere before crossing the line it would have been Tampa Bay ball on the 5. His ignorance cost 15 yards.
"In the NFL, a punted ball does not have to enter the end zone for a touchback to occur, though this is often the case.
A player on the punting team who attempts to down the ball before it crosses the plane of the goal line must keep both feet outside the goal line."
