Adonai Mitchell costs Colts a touchdown with the most unforgivable mistake

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Adonai Mitchell committed the gravest sin possible as he was crossing the goal line with an apparent touchdown during Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Rams.

Mitchell appeared to have reeled in a 76-yard touchdown pass from Daniel Jones during the third quarter of Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Ca. Mitchell made the catch just shy of the Rams’ 40, spun out of a tackle, and outran two Rams defenders to make it to the end zone.

Then Mitchell committed the unforgivable error of celebrating too early. Replays showed that Mitchell lost control of the football before crossing the goal line while he celebrated. As a result, the play was ruled a fumble and a touchback, as the ball went out of the end zone.
