The right foot definitely came off the ground right after he possessed the ball, so if he went foot/ball, as he should have, he would not have thought he had possession before the foot came up. The left foot was drug throughout the catch. The only thing they could have done better is signaled incomplete right away, cuz if one has it as incomplete, you can signal right away, but if you have a catch, you wait and make eye contact with your sideline crewmate before signalling complete.
MJT, the SJ signalled that he bobbled the ball, not that he was OOB. Why he made such a signal, I don't know either. The H clearly had a catch, the ball was not bobbled, which is why it was overturned.
