swim move

Water propulsion technique

A swim move is a football technique where an offensive or defensive player swings one arm over an opponent's shoulder in a sweeping arc—like a freestyle swimming stroke—while using the other hand to push down, allowing them to slip past the blocker: He used a swim move to get to the quarterback.
