Exclamation Need Help: My car went into an idle state today while driving

Had a very weird issue today while driving. I was going about 30mph and the car just wouldn't accelerate, the car was on by wouldn't accelerate. Even when I thru it in neutral and accelerate it was as if I didnt do anything it was just stuck on idle. I ended up throwing it on park, turned it off and re started and everything was back to normal. Anyone ever experience this?

Could possibly be an issue with the throttle body. Do you know if the TB harness has been rebuilt or if the TB has been replaced? Any CEL?
