Rashad Jennings competed on Season 24 of Dancing with the Stars, where he was paired with professional dancer Emma Slater and the two went on to win the competition. But that was in 2017.
However, Jennings proved that he still has what it takes to dominate the dance floor as he returned on Tuesday night to help celebrate the 20th anniversary of the hit show. Former winners were paired up with current celebrities to allow them to earn some more points.
Jennings was teamed up with Elaine Hendrix as the two performed a quickstep against Jordan Chiles and Apollo Ono.

However, Jennings and Hendrix were unable to come out on top, narrowly falling to Chiles and Ono.
But, it was incredible to see Jennings back out on the floor!
