This is a bit that their linemen do when there is an obvious offsides on the defense, and the offense gets a free play. They did it a couple of times earlier in the year when they played on Thursday night, and the defense jumped offsides. All five down linemen stayed down while the rest of the offense ran the play as designed. It confused the defense and actually got them a first down.
I’m confused!
Did he explain why he didn’t move?
i haven’t read or heard anything. i think i would avoid all communication after that bonehead thing

As an ex-offensive lineman I can now say there are a few quarterbacks that I would have liked to identify obvious offsides for.
