Dan Campbell: Headset malfunction forced Lions to burn our last timeout

Our Summary

The Detroit Lions faced a communication issue during their recent victory over the New York Giants when head coach Dan Campbell's headset malfunctioned in the fourth quarter. This technical problem forced Campbell to use the team's last timeout to relay the play call to quarterback Jared Goff, despite having just spiked the ball to stop the clock. Campbell expressed uncertainty about the cause of the issue but highlighted the importance of the timeout not costing them the game. Despite the setback, the Lions managed to push the game into overtime and ultimately secured the win.
