This is just like any other down vs. fumble play. If replay shows a player fumbling before the play is over, and replay also shows a clear recovery, the ball is dead and it's the recovering team's ball at that spot. The same would be true if a runner was ruled OOB and fumbled and there's a recovery in the immediate action following the fumble.
