I saw the play in front of me, and thought false start. But he did not move anything except his body up and turned his head. NO ONE from defense moved, so I did not call it. Asked umpire and both wings. They were like "did not know what he was doing". The defenseive coaches did NOT yell for a flag at all.
Anyone seen something like this before?
Should this have been called?

We actually have a rule to cover this. Once a line player assumes a 3- or 4-point stance, he may not break that stance. (4.3.4)
