If he would have caught it in the middle of the field it still would not have been a catch. The player has to carry the ball through contact with the ground for it to be considered possession.

This is what I was looking for. This makes sense to me considering the play. I reall just wanted to understand or know the rule with WRs making catches concerning the ground knocking it out of their posession.
