If the latest dance sweeping the sports world is any indication, Donald Trump and the NFL might get along much better in his second term in the White House than they did the first time around.

Several NFL players have taken a cue from the college ranks and even soccer pitches and mixed martial arts octagons and are celebrating big moments by hitting the “Trump dance."

It started with San Francisco star defensive end Nick Bosa celebrating a sack during the 49ers’ win over Tampa Bay in Week 10 and it took off Sunday when at least four players broke out the Trump-inspired dance.

After sacking Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield, Bosa swayed his hips slowly from side to side and swung his arms in a similar rhythm, just like the 78-year-old president-elect had done on the campaign trail, usually while “Y.M.C.A." blared at his rallies.
