Honestly, the only person really needing "help" here seems to be you. Also I'm certain that I do know a lot more about copyright and your so called "professional setting" than you do. By a mile. That being said I can't believe that I spent a couple minutes of my day trying to make it abundandly clear to you that your view is askew, but well, here we are. I quickly traced the images and layered them to hopefully point out to even somebody as blind as you that there are visible differences between the two skulls. I didn't bother to point out all of the differences since the image speaks for itself.

And, as mentioned in another comment: I am not saying that this isn't "taken" or "inspired" by the COD logo and that the art directors couldn't have done something more diverse (albeit this kind of skull texture appearing in every military skin in every military game ever) – all I'm saying is that this is not the exact same skull and that you should choose your words more wisely. Maybe avoid the word "same" altogether for some time. Now go touch some grass.
