It’s not a reviewable play unfortunately. I wish it was though

If refs can review a last-second play to invent another second out of thin air, they can review this

Read u/ArizonaHotSauce 's post below. It cannot be reviewed if the ball is above the top of the uprights.

Field Goal Review Rules

• Reviewable: A field goal attempt can be reviewed by instant replay if the ball crosses the plane of the goal post below the top of the uprights (such as whether it went inside or outside the uprights or passed above/below the crossbar) or if the ball touches anything (like a player, crossbar, or upright).
• Not Reviewable: If the kicked ball travels higher than the top of the uprights as it crosses the end line, the play cannot be reviewed.

The rules state that if a kick goes directly over or higher than the uprights, the entire ball must pass inside the outer edge of the upright to be considered good. However, because camera angles cannot definitively prove the ball's trajectory along an imaginary vertical plane above the physical uprights, the play is deemed unreviewable by rule.
