TL;DR Summary

During a critical Week 17 NFL game, Detroit Lions' Taylor Decker caught a 2-point conversion that would have given his team the lead, but the play was nullified by officials who claimed lineman Dan Skipper reported as eligible instead of Decker. The Lions and Decker insist that he did report as eligible, with video evidence supporting their claim. Despite the controversy, the Lions failed to convert a subsequent 2-point attempt following a Dallas penalty and ultimately lost the game, which had significant playoff implications. This incident adds to the history of contentious calls against the Lions in crucial moments.
