The Pittsburgh Steelers had plenty of reasons to dance in the first half against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday as the team made NFL history in Dublin, Ireland.
The Steelers defense was swarming Vikings quarterback Carson Wentz. He threw an interception to Steelers defensive back DeShon Elliott in the second quarter. Elliott ran down to the end zone, and along with his teammates, and celebrated the turnover.

Elliott then tried his best to perform a traditional Irish dance.
It was Elliott’s first interception of the season. It’s only the second game he’s played this season. He was out the last two weeks following the team’s Week 1 win against the New York Jets. Elliott had six tackles in that game.
