The nose wipe is a gang sign associated with the Bloods, indicating someone is untrustworthy.

Depending upon how strong an association this gesture is and how well it is known, I can see the NFL being disturbed by it. In recent years, there has been a whiff of gangland about the sport at times.
Google "gang influence in NFL" and scan the video and article hits. I am not saying any of this is true. I am saying that the NFL does not want to be associated with even a hint of it.
