Agreed. You are supposed to motion to the referee that you are eligible and verbally say it as well. #70 motioned to the ref but says he didn't say anything. #68 told the ref he was eligible but didn't make an obvious motion. A third lineman also was hanging out with the ref for no apparent reason.
Sure seems that the Lions were trying to get cute.
