The rule book states in Rule 8, Section 1, Article 3:
Item 1: Player Going To The Ground. If a player goes to the ground in the act of catching a pass (with or without contact by an opponent), he must maintain control of the ball after he touches the ground, whether in the field of play or the end zone. If he loses control of the ball, and the ball touches the ground before he regains control prior to the ball touching the ground, the pass is complete.
The play was consistent with how the NFL rules catches.
