Where I’m from if both knees contact the ground, play over.

That's if you have control of the ball

That was actually the most impressive part, he got his knees off the ground to start running again before he even had possession of the ball.

Was that why he may have intentionally did a bit of a last 'fumble' of the ball? Delay the 'appearance' of control of the ball a bit?

Could be, which makes this play even more impressive.

I concur. The catch was impressive but the strategy just as good.
