That's it, we're going to need official reviews to arrive for joint practices effective immediately. That way, NY Giants rookie Malik Nabers and Daniel Jones will be able to celebrate when they connect for massive gains, instead of having to deal with a silly mistake from someone in stripes.

In the opening session of joint practices between the Lions and G-Men, Jones fired a bomb downfield and Nabers was able to come down with an acrobatic reception. However, it was ruled out of bounds. Come on! As you'll be able to see in the video below, No. 9 (for now) was able to get both feet down:

Daniel Jones and Malik Nabers were robbed of an epic play vs. the Lions

This indeed has getting 'Mossed' written all over it, but it was somehow ruled an incomplete pass. If this were the regular season, the team in New York wouldn't have wasted more than two seconds to say the on-field decision was a total joke.

Nabers had Ifeatu Melifonwu all over him, but he was able to get the best of the Detroit safety. Despite this being ruled out of bounds, social media is going wild thanks to the amazing reception from Big Blue's No. 6 overall pick.

Throughout camp, Nabers has been putting on a show against the NY secondary, but this was his first chance to show everyone what he's made of against a different defense. Thus far, he's living up to the hype and reminding the Lions that his potential knows no limits.

With the preseason almost here too, the hope is that Jones and Nabers can keep building strong chemistry. Then in the Week 1 tilt vs. Minnesota, a touchdown or two and 100 yards for the speedster would be incredible to see. Oh, and if he's robbed of any other grabs, Brian Daboll will be ready to fire his red challenge flag onto the field. Be better than this, refs.
