Golden Tate didn't satisfy anything in either Rule 8, Section 1, Article 3 and Rule 8, Section 1, Article 3(5).
This is absurd.
"Peter King, Sports Illustrated... The inability to recognize the difference between simultaneous possession and one receiver trying to steal the ball from a defender. [...] The most telling part of the replay, if you watch closely, is that Tate's right arm, as the pile of bodies fall to the turf, flails out for a moment when Jennings has the ball, and then Tate puts his arm back in the scrum. Easley should have been able to see that."
