WTF?
Also, there was another play inside 2 minutes of the first half which I thought was worthy of a review but it didn't happen.
Anyone recall that one?

Perfectly legal. It's in the rule book. If a player catches the ball with one foot out of bounds the ball will be ruled out of bounds. They talked about it on the broadcast, about coaches trying to teach that move to players.
