The Cee Dee mouth wipe?

[Established1971]

Has anyone figured what that gesture CD often does after a catch is?

It looks like a mouth wipe to me, kind of like a sloppy old western cowboy might wipe his mouth after drinking his whiskey sloppy or a slob might wipe his mouth while eating (like a variation of Elliot's feed me).

The reason I ask is because I am watching the Michigan Wolverine game and a player did the same thing after a sack and got a 15 yard flag . The announcer, rightly, said the ref mistakenly felt that was a throat slashing gesture but it clearly wasn't. But what the heck is it?

It looks like a nose wipe… which is to say: it looks stupid

It's the patented #88 nose wipe invented by Michael Irvin.

 

[TRUTH87]

Just give the ball to the ref, be a pro

 

[AsthmaField]

Whatever. Just catch the ball and score… do whatever you want to afterwards. If that’s a thing these days, it’s all good. Every generation has things that is unique to them. And previous generations always call them stupid.

Just be great and wipe away!

I think he'll look back on these days when he's 50 or 60 and say, "What was I thinking? Man, I shoulda just tossed the ball to the ref and got back to the huddle."

You got to understand the meaning behind it bro… to these guys it’s basically they killed their opponent

 

[JerryJonesMoney]

Wiping the nose is a gesture rappers do. Can’t really say what it means. Young Thug made it popular. Funny thing is that CeeDee looks exactly like a young Thug too. Idk who started it. I saw Deshaun Watson do it first awhile back.

 

[ChronicCowboy]

It’s a clever way to celebrate a first down. He acts like he’s wiping his nose and extends his arm into a first down motion. Good not great.

 

[Ranched]

Depends where & who uses it. In football it's a first down. Outside of football it means excitement.

Lol. How do you know you replied to a brother being there's many sisters in here?! Including myself!

I don't hate it completely, I just find it a bit weird. At least it's better than Zeke's "feed me" gesture.

I'd be much more accepting of either, if they saved it for really impressive plays.

Zeke got feed me tatted on him the year he went into severe decline… i think he’s taking the title

Irvin isn't.

I wonder if an antihistamine would be helpful.

The NFL says the players can celebrate again so....have at it. What ever makes you feel good is what I say. Just perform at a high level.
