Carrie Underwood returned for a fifth season of Sunday Night Football, performing her personalized theme song, “Oh, Sunday Night,” before the Cowboys vs. Giants game on Sept. 10.

This year, 10 NFL players participated in the opening video with Carrie, including Antonio Brown, Derek Carr, Dont’a Hightower, Travis Kelce, Julio Jones, Khalil Mack, Von Miller, Patrick Peterson, Jason Pierre-Paul and Dak Prescott.

The tune, which is set to the music of “Somethin’ Bad,” Carrie’s 2014 chart-topping duet with Miranda Lambert, was was given a football friendly tweak in 2016 by songwriters Chris DeStefano, Brett James and Priscilla Renea.

Carrie re-recorded the song for the 2017 season to keep it fresh.
