I did see the play, and the description above is accurate. The L did toss his flag from the NZ to A's backfield. He reported to the R what he had, but did not use any signals, so we don't know what he reported. The R waved the flag off saying there was no foul on the play for an illegal pass. I think R used the term illegal pass.
The play was then reviewed, but we don't know if the review was for the pass (forward or backward?) or for the loose ball at the end of the play being a fumble or not, or who may have gained possession.
The TV announcers were in the middle of a telephone conversation with ESPN's Reece Davis about an upcoming game at Miami (OH). So not only do they not know the rules, but they were distracted in explaining what they did not know.
