Von Miller's New Dabbin' Sack Dance Isn't About Pot — or So We're Told

As we've noted, San Diego Chargers quarterback/cry-baby Philip Rivers didn't really enjoy Von Miller putting him on his backside so often in yesterday's Broncos win.

But was Rivers actually upset because he dislikes watching Von Miller dabbin'?

Dabbin' is a dance whose creators swear it's not about marijuana. The simplest description of it we've found: It involves "leaning into your elbow like you're about to sneeze while lifting your knee."

Oh yeah: Just in case anyone makes the marijuana connection, Miller defined dabbin' as "fashion" on his Instagram page:

Just as important, he revealed the locker-room choice for Brock Osweiler's nickname — a much-debated topic on Twitter of late.

The winner: Brockweiler.

It'll be hard to connect that to cannabis. At least we think it will be....
