Campbell said that both players approached the ref to try to confuse the defense, which seems odd because it's publicly announced when a player reports eligible. Detroit apparently missed the announcement or didn't pay attention to it (also odd), and, as you noted, Dallas defended the player who was announced. Had the announcement been made correctly, they would have covered the "right" player.
