It's an old term, but has regained popularity lately. Similar
to when a few announcers starting saying something like, "He throws a beautiful deep ball, does Beck," a number of years ago. They were really just mimicking the great Keith Jackson though.
Old vernacular reborn temporarily. Often made popular again because it hearkens to the roots and historocity of the game.

There was some weird concerted effort by broadcasters to have this become part of the football lexicon recently

That's probably what brought it into more common usage, but Greg Wrubell has been using it for 20 years.

And if you are familiar with LES, when Wrubell says a team is playing from his left to right as he sees it
