…what is this nose wiping and signaling first down? It looks stupid to me.

Per Google:

The nose wipe celebration after a big play in football originated with Deshaun Watson in 2018, and was inspired by a verse from the song "Slimed in" by Atlanta rapper Young Thug. The verse includes the line, "Wipe your nose clean/F@#$ your whole team". After Watson started doing the celebration, other players on his team began to do it as well.

It’s a generational thing.

I didn’t even google it. I wasn’t thinking it had a pop culture origin was more just thinking it was organic to CFB.

The only one I’ve noticed doing it nonstop is Ceedee Lamb.

I know during the 90’s my parents and their generation didnt think anything we did was stupid

 

[OopsICroomedmypants]

I'd probably just grab my crotch while signaling a first down. Worked for Michael Jackson.

Have never bothered to Google the significance of the celebration. Reminds me of my 9th grade self after a movie date.

[DawgsGoneWild]

I always thought it was a stanky finger sniff.

Malicious compliance possibility…

How rap culture has escaped any and all accountability for violating social decency norms in essentially every published verse is really fascinating.

I had a GF that lived about 50 miles away.
We’d go to skylark drive in..
(I’m old) and I would give a sniff about every 10 miles on the way home

It's got to be some sort of sword fight or martial art thing
