This time, it counts. Lions offensive tackle Dan Skipper was, in fact, deemed an eligible receiver and got himself a touchdown during the second quarter against the Buffalo Bills.
Skipper was thought to have reported as eligible on a two-point conversion attempt last season against the Dallas Cowboys but was deemed to have not reported. This time, all is right in the world.
The touchdown pulled the Lions to within 21-14 in the second quarter.
