This is as clean as they come.
The video shows the exact opposite of what you claim. Freeze frame and you see the ball being held in his hand(s) with the right foot down and the left foot up. You may not want to call it, but it is there.

It also doesn't take 2 hands to hold the ball. One under it is holding the ball and when the travel rule begins.
