Former Super Bowl and NFL wide receiver, Keyshawn Johnson, is one of 12 celebrity cast members who will appear on the upcoming 17th season of ‘Dancing With the Stars.’ The announcement of all 12 contestants came on Wednesday, September 4, on ABC’s “Good Morning America.”
Johnson will be paired with professional dancer Sharna Burgess and if NFL past perfomances are a gauge, Johnson could be a favorite.
Professional athletes seem to always do well on the show and Johnson should be no exception.
Beginning on Monday, Sept. 16th, Johnson will be the only athlete to appear on the show. In past seasons, there were always several athletes as part of the cast, however, this season, Johnson is the only sports representative.
Previous NFL cast members include: Emmitt Smith, Donald Driver, Jacoby Jones, Jerry Rice, Hines Ward, Kurt Warner, Warren Sapp, Michael Irvin and Jason Taylor.
