Forgive me, Robert, but NF:7-2-6 sets the team requirement, stating: " After a huddle or shift all 11 players of A shall come to an absolute stop and shall remain stationary simultaneously without movement of hands, feet, head or body [B][I]for at least one second before the snap.""PENALTY: Illegal shift (Art 6)-(S20)" That 1 second (Team) pause must be completed before any player STARTS in motion
