Cooks irked NFL outlawing bow and arrow move
New Orleans Saints receiver
Brandin Cooks is frustrated by the NFL's sudden crackdown on the bow-and-arrow touchdown celebration that he began as a sign of his faith in God.
Cooks himself has never been fined or penalized for the gesture, which has become so associated with him that the NFL Players Association and a partner company created an emoji of Cooks shooting an arrow.

Josh Norman was
hit with both a penalty and a fine two weeks ago, with the NFL's head of officiating Dean Blandino explaining that it "mimics a violent act."
Cooks said he plans to keep doing the celebration in some form, although he doesn't want to hurt his team by drawing a flag.
"Well, there are different forms of doing it. You just can't shoot [the arrow]," Cooks
told NOLA.com. "I'm still going to pull it out. Whatever happens after that happens. I don't want to do anything to jeopardize my team, but I'll figure something out."
Cooks has adopted the nickname, "The Archer," which he uses on social media.
