APG answered it. It was related to recovery of a fumble by team A inside the 2 minute warning. I fumbled the language when trying to describe the situation.

Even if he didn't cross the goal line... is this really a fumble given that it did not hit the ground?

Yes as it was a loss of player possession from an act that wasn't a kick or pass.
