I fully understand the rule but you only do that if you are in a position to pick the ball up and advance it.  He DOVE into the pile so there was NO benefit that could have resulted by him diving on the ball which contained 3 Colts players -- he would have been touched downed immediately resulting in the Jags getting the ball at that spot anyway.  Now, if you're quick and swift enough to pick up the ball and elude the defenders and have some clear running room then go for it.

 

What he did by diving into the pile for the ball was idiotic.
