We already have our first viral ‘First Take’ moment of the new year.
During Tuesday’s episode of ‘First Take’, ESPN NFL analyst Dan Orlosvky took off co-host Molly Qerim’s shoe, which was gifted to her by Stephen A. Smith after he lost a bet.
While holding up the shoe, Orlovsky decided to sniff it on live TV, which led Smith to question whether Orlovsky had a foot fetish.
Molly Qerim: “Are you really sniffing the shoe? I just got the shoe and I have tights on, don’t be weird”
Stephen A Smith: “He might have a foot fetish, Dan might be one of those”
"[Dan Orlovsky] might have a foot fetish."

This isn’t the first awkward moment involving Qerim. Just a few months ago, Smith made uncomfortable jokes about his co-host’s vibrating phone on air.
Viewers at home were weirded out by Orlovsky’s interaction with Qerim.
