Set to the Monday Night Football theme song, the ‘gram shows new dad Ohanian cradling his young daughter like a pigskin in his right arm—a popular position for soothing infants. The 34-year-old shows off his best NFL moves while Alexis Jr. snoozes peacefully in his hand. They both look like naturals!

“Baby Football. Just parental leave things. @olympiaohanian loves this hold. #MNF @serenawilliams,” Ohanian captioned the cute clip.

Forget about the baby, maybe dad—who stands at an impressive 6’5″—should get some pads on and hit the field!
