The Buffalo Bills were on the wrong end of a close call in the NFL wild card round, and a former Clemson starter was at the center of it.
Linebacker Baylon Spector scooped up a fumble that harmlessly crept near the sideline, but it was ruled a fumble out of bounds on the field. Following a Bills challenge, the officials confirmed that the call stood, but you can be the judge.

Spector started two seasons as a Tiger with 193 total tackles in his Clemson career. After almost completing the recovery for Buffalo, Spector went down with a back injury. He’s been put in a larger role with the Bills’ linebacker injuries and his status is crucial for the playoff run if it continues.
