NFL explains why Chris Ivory’s fumble in end zone against Chiefs was not overturned

If you were watching Sunday’s Chiefs-Jaguars game on television, you may have raised an eyebrow (as I did) when announcer Solomon Wilcots was discussing a fumble by Jacksonville’s Chris Ivory.

The Chiefs led 19-7 with 8:28 left in the game when Ivory reached for the end zone and fumbled. Cornerback Marcus Peters recovered in the end zone and it turned out to be a huge moment in the game.

The Jaguars challenged the call and viewers got to see what appeared to be Ivory in control of the ball as the tip of it crossed the front of the line.
