After a run midway through the third quarter of the game that picked up a first down, Le’Veon Bell attempted to signal for the first down as the chains kept moving.

Buccaneers linebacker Danny Lansanah was not having any of it, however.

Instead of allowing Bell to stretch his arm and signal for the chains to move, Lansanah batted down Bell’s arm and returned to the huddle.

The referees must not have seen the little exchange, because now flag was thrown on the play.

The only thing that could have made this any better would have been if Lansanah looked back at Bell with the Dikembe Mutombo finger wag.
