CeeDee Lamb is going to keep his nose clean from now on.
The NFL made a change to celebration rules this week, and that included banning the “nose wipe” gesture, which Lamb has been known to do with the Dallas Cowboys. The infraction will be a 15-YARD PENALTY!!!!!!! Which is wild!
What’s the deal here? Per Pro Football Talk: “The nose wipe is a gang sign associated with the Bloods, indicating someone is untrustworthy.”
OK, I guess I get it, but really? A whole 15 yards for a simple “nose wipe”? I can’t wait for a player to use his hand for something on his face mask after a first down and get whistled for this.
Lamb kept his reaction simple on Twitter, perhaps indicating he had a new celebration in mind: “smh, I have plenty in mind.”
That emoji speaks volumes.
