The end zone view doesn't tell me when he actually crosses the plane of the GL, but I'm assuming it's pieced together from other views.

I don't find anything about, "I'd make him survive the ground" included in NFHS 2-4 that defines a "catch", a long as there is confirmation when, " first contacting the ground (in bounds) while maintaining possession" the requirements for "a catch" have been met, which may well be different that other rule codes.
If in the endzone NFHS 8-2-b establishes it is a TD, and what happens thereafter happens to a dead ball.
