If he would have caught it cleanly when he first made contact with the ball I think it’s ruled a catch. He bobbled it though and once he gains control Vigil is already engaging him. At that point he has to hold on to the ball all the way through the tackle in order to be ruled a catch. If Vigil just knocks the ball out of the receivers hands it would have been an incomplete pass. Instead of swiping at it he just took it, which means it’s an interception.
It was a close play. I’d probably be frustrated if it happened to us. I’ve seen enough close plays go against us that I’m not going to question one that finally went our way in a game we lost.
