CeeDee Lamb addressed a rule change made by the NFL that bans his “nose wipe” celebration.
According to a rules report sent to NFL teams and reviewed by insider Benjamin Solak, the league is banning “unsportsmanlike conduct” including “any violent gestures.”
In addition to gestures that reference a “throat slash” and “simulating firing or brandishing a gun,” the NFL also named Lamb’s "nose wipe" gesture as one of the prohibited acts.
“smh, i have plenty in mind😒,” wrote Lamb, 25, to his X account on Wednesday.
The gesture will now result in a 15-yard penalty, per Solak.
Some Dallas Cowboys fans have been referring to the "No Fun League's" change as the “CeeDee Lamb Rule,” according to Sports Illustrated.
The “nose wipe” gesture, as noted by Urban Dictionary, is when “the index finger slides horizontally under the nose in the path of the ops and ends with the thumbs down position. This gesture lets your team know you're out for blood and to scare the ops away.”
