Marcus Mariota TD pass for Commanders ruled incomplete, despite replay appearing to show catch should have counted

On second-and-9 from the Dallas 29-yard line, Mariota connected with Dyami Brown along the left sideline for what appeared to be a touchdown as the receiver fell out of bounds. Yet the play was ruled incomplete by the officials on the field.
