A RB who blasts off sideways before the ball is snapped because he knows he is running a toss play, is guilty of a false start.
What are you gonna do about this? The QB is under center. The team is set. He sees something in the defense that he wants to alert the tailback to so he slowly comes out from under center and moves back to the tailback to whisper in his earhole. When he starts walking back to his original position, has he false started?

Never thought about that but I definitely see your point! Thanks!
