Douglas explains why he was trying to snatch ball from Lions long snapper 

In the final game of the 2022 regular season, Packers cornerback Rasul Douglas gave us one of the more puzzling sequences that we've seen all year. 
As the first half came to a close in Green Bay's Week 18 matchup with the Lions at Lambeau Field, Detroit was lining up for a field goal to draw within three before the break. As Michael Badgley was lining up for the attempt, officials began blowing their whistles to stop the play. At that point, Douglas then walked toward the line of scrimmage, got into the scrum of offensive linemen who were mostly still set, and tried to snatch the ball away from long-snapper Scott Daly. 
Upon Douglas' attempt at taking the ball, Lions offensive tackle Dan Skipper took offense to him making this rather bizarre move and gave him a shove. Douglas then responded with a hit over Skipper's head, which drew a 15-yard penalty for unnecessary roughness. That turned what would have been a 48-yard field goal attempt into a 33-yarder, which Badgley converted to go into halftime trailing the Packers, 9-6. 



The entire sequence is certainly a head-scratching moment and one that helped Detroit put points on the board. On Monday, Douglas did take to social media to explain what he was doing. He noted that Badgley had missed a kick earlier in the game, Green Bay has called a timeout, and he wanted to get the ball before Badgley had an opportunity at a free kick. Douglas did take responsibility for the hit on Skipper, however.





Just leave the ball alone. Who cares if he kicks the ball? Yeah I know, he can see how the cold or wind affects his kick. It's not YOUR job to grab the ball. If it was the ST coach would have assigned you those duties.

Slapping the ball is fine, no issue with that. But you gotta know you're being a dick so they're gonna react. So why react back? Super stupid. If you're gonna play with fire, you can't be a dummy.
