Yes, but they said on the ricochet off his chest he still has an opportunity to catch the ball if it’s close enough to him(not hitting the ground of course) since he gave the fair catch signal. I thought it may have been close enough for him to still grab it while it was still in the air and the defense has to give you that room. Never knew that.
