Probably.
I saw an interview with Casserly (IIRC) around draft season in 2016 where he briefly discussed it and thought it was interesting so I did a little reading about it and spent last season looking for it in Smith and other guys I watched play.
Had never thought to look for it prior to that and it was really fascinating once you knew what you were seeing. In fact, I noted at the time that I always kinda noticed it but diagnosed it wrong (I first saw it in Geno but didn't attribute it to his front leg; I thought it was a mechanical quirk attributable to stiff hips; knew I didn't like it before I knew it was a thing - funny how that works).
It's really pretty important when you're looking for a guy that can power the football.
