Dan Gilbert: ‘The Lions Have Been Completely Robbed’

Dan Gilbert, founder and chairman of Rocket Companies and owner of the Cleveland Cavaliers, commented on the disputed ref call that lost the Detroit Lions a victory against the Dallas Cowboys on X, formerly Twitter, on Sunday.

On Saturday night, Jared Goff completed a pass to left tackle Taylor Decker, putting the Lions ahead of Dallas 21-20 with seconds remaining. Then a flag appeared, pronouncing Decker ineligible since he had not properly reported his eligibility. The Lions were defeated 20-19.

Decker, Coach Dan Campbell, and other Lions insist Decker notified the referee. They claim there is video evidence that Decker did so.

The NFL is looking into the situation.
