You are talking about a catch.

Recovering a live ball doesn’t require a football move.

I literally cited the exact rule that says the same criteria apply to recoveries.

I also said, twice, that he doesn’t have to actually make a football move. He has to have control of the ball long enough to do so.

In those cases it’s not that the player didn’t have possession it’s that possession may have changed hands a few times in a dog pile

I’m talking about cases where an OL grabs the ball with two hands, has a knee or elbow on the ground, but can’t maintain control.
