I just watched it a few times. That is a catch you’d like him to make. The average NFL TE catches that about 65% of the time. It’s certainly not an easy catch.

On a ball like that, over your left shoulder and at the edge of your reach, you would like to be coming off your left foot, which would extend your right arm reach, and that was the limiting factor on that catch. That would result in your hips rotating CCW as viewed from above. Foster’s right foot was driving, rotating his hips CW and away from the ball. That little difference is probably an inch or two of reach and was the difference.

He still should have caught it, but that best foot/worst foot is what dropped this from whatever, a 95% catch to a 65% catch.
