Lions' Amon-Ra St Brown apologizes if he 'offended' anyone with Trump dance at game vs Commanders
President Donald Trump was in the FOX booth for the Washington Commanders' touchdown drive against the Detroit Lions.
Detroit Lions star Amon-Ra St. Brown apologized to anyone who was "offended" by his tribute to President Donald Trump during his team's victory over the Washington Commanders on Sunday.
St. Brown performed Trump's signature dance after scoring a touchdown, and then pointed to the president, who was in attendance at Northwest Stadium.
The wide receiver addressed the incident and public response during an episode of his podcast on Wednesday.

"If I offended anyone, I do apologize. I did not mean to offend anyone. It was just, we're having fun," he said. "If any president was at that game, if they had a dance, I would have done it. It had nothing to do with who the president was."
Trump became the first sitting U.S. president to attend a regular season NFL game since Jimmy Carter in 1978.
For St. Brown, it was a special occasion.
"Even after the game, someone tells me 'That's the first game that a president has been to in over 40 years,' first regular season game, which is crazy," St. Brown said. "We were just having fun doing the dance, it was nothing more, nothing less."
Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jourdan Lewis appeared to call out St. Brown for the dance in a since-deleted social media post.
