No place in the rule book does it state a one foot requirement although that is how we all officiate it.
You might want to read the definition of a catch in rule 2. Even tho it does not specify, the fact the player needs to be inbounds when he catches the pass makes it 1 foot. If he needed 2 then they would specify as that being the minimum requirement of being inbounds.
