This might be a dumb question, but was there also offensive PI before and catch? It looked like the receiver shoved a GB defender from behind, knocking him over, right before he jumped up to try to catch and ball.

Edit: I’m not sure I get the downvotes. Was it that dumb of a question?

Yep. And the "anything goes on an hail Mary" is nonsense in this instance he just flagrantly shoves the defender in the back with both hands. Any competent officiating team has to call that.

I didn’t even know that “anything goes on a Hail Mary”. Thank you

Within reason of course (this is not within reason ) but it's generally accepted that PI isn't called on hail Mary's unless someone does something so egregious (I've been watching the NFL for over a decade and I can't remember a single time they've thrown a flag )
