Did anyone notice this about Louis Murphy?

[Guest Bwood]

This is a stupid thread. But did anyone else notice Murphy doing that thing with his hands before every snap?

Anyone have a gif of it? I don't even know how to describe what he was doing, kind of like spinning both hands slowly one after the other.

[OBXPantha]

Yea, I saw that. I was wondering if it was something he was taught and has some kind of purpose or if it was more like a superstitous thing.

I actually saw Smitty doing the same thing in preseason against Miami.

[nickzz]

you've never seen wrs do that before?

[Tarheels23]

Smitty did it on the line, after he made a big play, so I just thought he was feeling himself.

[KBlizz]

i have no idea what you guys are talking about.

[Ken]

I've seen other receivers do this... most recently Robert Woods of USC iirc.

im telling you man, he is and will be proven the best FA pickup for the Panthers! YEA I SAID IT! imo, he is already proven, and we should drop some dead weight. Lafell and him will make a great core after Smitty! No one current outside of the 3 is truly worth the convo. YEA I SAID THAT TOO!

I do the exact same thing right before I, oops

not sure what your talking about. if your talking about him pointing to the sidelines receivers do that to make sure there not in front of the line of scrimmage, my coach in high school made me do it every damn play

I thought they did that to signal they were actually on the LOS so there is no illegal formation.

I think what he is talking about is that Murphy will rotate his hands in a circle-like fashion. Maybe it's just a habit.

[Fox007]

He's been doing that since he played at Florida...

[pilot2011]

I noticed him doing it...but now that you mention it, I'm not sure if he did that on every snap or just the plays he was running routes. Either way, I hope he either does it for every play or not do it at all.
