Joining Bush on the field was his wife, Barbara Bush, who also spent time in the hospital recently. His flip resulted in tails, a victory for the Falcons, who deferred to the second half.

Sophie Tatum of CNN reported the former president was discharged Monday from Houston Methodist Hospital after recovering from a respiratory issue stemming from pneumonia.

Michael Graczyk of the Associated Press noted Barbara Bush was released from the same hospital on Jan. 23 after she was treated for bronchitis.

Sunday's game is being played at NRG Stadium in Houston.
