On the final play of the game last Sunday at Ford Field between the Detroit Lions and the Pittsburgh Steelers, Lions Pro Bowl wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown knew going into the pivotal fourth and goal that if he didn’t get into the end zone, he was going to lateral the ball to a teammate.
Ultimately, he did just that, pitching the ball to quarterback Jared Goff, who tumbled into the end zone for what many thought was the game-winning score.
But there were just a few slight problems with that. St. Brown had a pass interference penalty on Steelers safety Jalen Ramsey in the end zone to get open for the catch.
