ALLEN PARK, Michigan – Two days after a controversial loss to the Dallas Cowboys, Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell emphatically stated he was moving on from the defeat. The loss has been a hot topic of discussion, especially after Lions offensive lineman Dan Skipper stated that he did not report as an eligible receiver in response to an NFL memo.

Skipper explained his side, stating, “So personnel, you signal in. I wasn’t like this (wiping my numbers). I was not doing that. I was doing this (holding one arm up and another by my stomach, with two fingers out), signaling 12 jumbo. Everyone who’s played at this level, I’m sure all you guys know that you signal in personnel.”

The Lions lost to the Cowboys, 20-19, after their 2-point conversion was negated when it was ruled that the offensive tackle Taylor Decker was not an eligible receiver. Referee Brad Allen, per the game’s pool report, said Skipper reported as an eligible receiver, not Decker.

A video memo sent to each NFL team serves as a reminder that any offensive player numbered 50-79 or 90-99 is permitted to line up as an eligible pass receiver but must immediately report the change in his status to the referee. Skipper said because he did not go up to the official, he could not be the one reporting.

The memo was sent as a reminder of the established process that has been implemented for years.

Detroit, which has clinched the NFC North, is set to wrap up its regular season against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. Despite speaking at length on the matter, Skipper said he’s ready to move on, stating, “I mean, (expletive), you can’t sit here and wallow in the past.”
