It’s time to put the footwork into football.
Dancing With the Stars is bringing four football icons back to the ballroom in honor of week five’s Super Bowl theme. Indeed, the Oct. 13 episode of the ABC dancing reality competition series will feature former NFL stars—who previously competed on DWTS—showing off their dance moves once again as well as a special guest judge from the sports world.
As the show’s companion podcast host and season 34 alum Andy Richter revealed on the Oct. 8 episode, Dallas Cowboys alum Emmitt Smith, former Green Bay Packers player Donald Driver, ex-Cowboys star DeMarcus Ware and former New England Patriots wide receiver Danny Amendola will be making guest appearances on Dancing With the Stars—and they will even be performing.
Smith has been a part of the DWTS franchise for decades, winning the third season with pro partner Cheryl Burke. The NFL legend returned years later for Dancing with the Stars: All-Stars in 2012, where he came in fourth place.
But Smith isn’t the only returning champion. After all, Driver also won his respective season, taking home the Mirrorball Trophy in season 14 with partner Peta Murgatroyd.
