Dak and the centre both need to know the rules in this situation. Find the Umpire and give him the ball ASAP. Bad play call or decision making on the play with that little time left, but if you are going to do it you need to know the ball needs to go to the Umpire.

College has it right with the stoppage to move the chains and spot the ball. NFL should follow suit.
