It has been almost two weeks since Donald Trump was elected as the 47th president of the United States, and NFL players have jumped on the Trump train.

A week before the election, San Francisco 49ers pass rusher Nick Bosa showed off his Make America Great Again hat to the cameras after their big win over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night football, which he was fined for spreading a political message the league didn’t approve.
Donald Trump Has Taken Over The NFL
Since that moment, Bosa and many other NFL players have started doing the Donald Trump dance after they make a huge play in a game.
The Trump dance is a motion of throwing your arms and fists in the air, and it goes to the song Y.M.C.A by the Village People.
Bosa was one of the first NFL players to the dance last week after getting a sack on Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield, and this Sunday, many players followed his lead.
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers, Detroit Lions defensive end Za’Darius Smith, Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley were some of the players to bust move.

Even though many NFL players didn’t speak before or after the election about their stance on politics, breaking out the Trump dance is probably their way of showing their support for the future president without trying to cause any drama that will take away from the team.
