What does it mean to touch someone illegally? How the Lions’ two-point conversion against the Cowboys was nullified due to a Taylor Decker foul

What does it mean to touch someone illegally? How the Lions’ two-point conversion against the Cowboys was nullified due to Taylor Decker foul 

 

Dan Campbell’s aggressiveness is unmatched by few football coaches.

Despite the assistance of a contentious penalty, his aggressive 2-point decision on Saturday fell just short.

In the final seconds of a crucial game for playoff positioning, the Lions defeated the Cowboys with a touchdown. Campbell needed to decide whether to go

for two points and win or to kick the game-tying field goal. His decision to go for two was well-known to all.

The bold call seemed to have worked. Taylor Decker, an offensive lineman, was

hit by Jared Goff for the conversion. Decker did not report in as eligible, according to officials, so he was called for

illegal touching. Goff failed to complete his pass after two tries, and the Lions were defeated 20–19.

Dan Campbell said following the game, “The explanation was 70 [offensive

tackle Dan Skipper] reported.” “One person is unable to report. I’d rather not discuss it. Pregame, I gave a T. 70

reported an explanation of everything. Sixty-eight did not. We hurled it toward 68. That served as the justification.”
