Danny Amendola is the NFL’s only representative on Season 33 of “Dancing with the Stars,” but he does the league justice.

After his debut episode, which saw him tango to Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” fans were eager to see what the retired wide receiver had to offer in the competition’s second week.

As the third of 13 dancers on the night, Amendola’s latest set of moves impressed viewers. With gymnast Stephen Nedoroscik, rugby player Ilona Maher and former NBA player Dwight Howard among the other athletes on the list, Amendola certainly established herself as a threat.

Here’s everything you need to know about Danny Amendola’s second DWTS appearance, including the Super Bowl champion’s score on ‘Dancing with the Stars’ Oscars night.

The theme of the second episode of “Dancing with the Stars” was Oscars Night, with each couple dancing to iconic songs from Academy Award-nominated films. Amendola sang a jive to Kenny Loggins’ “Danger Zone” from the 1996 “Top Gun” original soundtrack.

Fans of the show were quick to praise Amendola for his moves, complimenting his footwork, energy and stunts. The 38-year-old also showed more of his personality this week than he did last week, as he got into his groove.

Although Amendola and his partner only outscored last week’s judges by one point with 21 points, he impressed most viewers and proved that he belongs here.

Which NFL teams did Danny Amendola play for?

After a successful four-year career at Texas Tech, Amendola signed with the Cowboys as an undrafted free agent in April 2008. He was cut and joined the practice squad, eventually moving from the Eagles to the St. Louis Rams before taking the field for the first time in 2009.

He played four years with the Rams before signing with the Patriots in March 2013. Over the next three seasons, Amendola won two Super Bowls by catching passes from the legendary Tom Brady. After his successful stint with New England, the receiver left for Miami on a two-year deal, but was released by the team within one year before spending the next two seasons in Detroit.

Amendola’s last campaign in 2021 brought him to Houston where he signed a one-year contract. In July of that year, he announced his retirement.
