If you've seen anything further on this, it was basically stated by the league that had CJ instantly raised his arm and spiked the ball while on his butt for that split second, it would've been called a TD...another gray area part of the "second act" part of things.
The NFL would've ruled favorably at either outcome, and now they hush it down for damage control. It was obviously quite clear that CJ never had an issue with controlling the ball...until he went to get up off the ground and used the ball to push off. Where that didn't fall in as "second act" material...I don't know. I'm sure the 2 officials on either side of CJ that signaled TD have had some phone discussions with each other since last weekend.
The only thing I like about the overall outcome is that maybe these
high-priced characters will think more about the game and less about the celebratory crap afterwards.
