Question - was he signally a first down or was he signalling A CHANGE OF POSSESSION?!

Reason I ask is that the ol' "arm pointing upfield" signal for a first down that I see sometimes is also very similar to the "this team has possession" signal. Was there a fumble, perhaps? Did the LJ see a change of possession that was (maybe) then ruled to have occurred after the whistle, or something?
