Packers CB Rasul Douglas Explains What Was Going Through His Mind During Insanely Dumb Play That Cost His Team vs. Lions
In the final game of the 2022 regular season, Packers CB Rasul Douglas gave us one of the more puzzling sequences we've seen all year.
Indeed, as the first half came to a close in Green Bay's Week 18 matchup with the Lions, Detroit was lining up for a field goal to draw within three before the break. As Michael Badgley lined up for the attempt, officials began blowing whistles to stop the play. At that point, Douglas walked toward the line of scrimmage, got into the scrum of offensive linemen who were mainly still set, and tried to snatch the ball away from long-snapper Scott Daly.
Check out the play:
Well, here is what Douglas said about the play:
Douglas plays in his second season with the Packers after initially signing with the team's practice squad in October 2021. Before that, he was a third-round pick of the Eagles in 2017 out of West Virginia and bounced around the league after the team waived him in the summer of 2020, having brief stints with the Panthers, Raiders, Texans, and Cardinals.
This season, the 27-year-old totaled 80 tackles, four interceptions, and 13 pass breakups in 11 games (four starts).
