Everyone had something to say about Dez Bryant’s overturned catch, including a handful of professional athletes.

Officials ruled that the Dallas wide receiver’s spectacular catch at Green Bay’s 1-yard line late in the fourth quarter of the Cowboys’ divisional-round matchup with the Packers on Sunday was an incomplete pass. Many people on Twitter, including LeBron James, reacted to the call.

The Cleveland Cavaliers star, who happens to be a Cowboys fan, might not have the most unbiased reaction. However, Odell Beckham Jr., wide receiver for the division rival New York Giants, shared James’ opinions.

New England Patriots cornerback Brandon Browner chimed in on the play, too.

On the other side of the argument, some Detroit Lions players were just happy Dallas’ game ended in controversial fashion after they knocked the Lions out of the playoffs the week before on a non-call.
