President Donald Trump’s signature dance move has returned to the NFL end zone.
As Trump was ready to arrive at Northwest Stadium for the Washington Commanders’ game against the Detroit Lions, star receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown caught a pass from Jared Goff on 3rd-and-7, crossed the end zone and scored his team’s second touchdown of the game.
St. Brown celebrated by pointing out where the president would be sitting and performed the Trump dance, swinging his arms and legs back and forth as his Lions teammates joined in the dance.

This isn’t the first time the “Trump Dance” has gone viral in the NFL, as several players celebrated big plays last season with the move. Trump was seen performing it himself during campaign rallies across the country, and it quickly hit the league.
Trump spent Sunday morning golfing in Florida before traveling to Washington to attend the game in Landover, Maryland. The matchup was part of the NFL’s “Salute to Service,” which honors military veterans ahead of Veterans Day on Tuesday.

Trump was expected to sit down with Commanders principal owner Josh Harris, who has worked with D.C. officials and the White House to get approval to build a new stadium on the former RFK Stadium site in Washington. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth was also seen speaking with Harris before the game.
“I just want to say, was that the biggest flyover ever? No one has ever done a flyover like that,” Trump told reporters before leaving for the stadium.

Trump’s appearance at the Commanders’ home game came a day after a White House intermediary told the Commanders’ ownership group that Trump wants the new stadium named after him, according to ESPN. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement to Pak Gazette Digital that “it would surely be a beautiful name.”
While they did not comment on that report, commanders welcomed the 47th president to his showdown with the Lions.
“We are honored to welcome President Trump to the game as we celebrate those who have served and continue to serve our country,” Commanders Club President Mark Clouse said earlier this week. “The entire Commanders organization is proud to participate in the NFL’s league-wide Salute to Service initiative, recognizing the dedication and sacrifice of our nation’s veterans, active-duty service members and their families this Sunday.”
Trump is the first sitting president to attend a regular-season NFL game since 1978, when Jimmy Carter was in office. This is not the first time Trump has attended an NFL game, as he was seen at Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans earlier this year.

Trump also attended multiple sporting events over the past year, including the Pittsburgh Steelers’ “Sunday Night Football” game during the election campaign. He has also been seen at several UFC events, the Daytona 500, the US Open and the Ryder Cup.
With plenty of game left to play, there may be more Trump tributes if players continue to find the end zone.
