Legendary Boston College quarterback Doug Flutie has joined the latest roster of celebrities to compete on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars.

On Tuesday, the full cast for season 22 of the hit reality competition was revealed on Good Morning America. Flutie will be partnering with professional ballroom dancer Karina Smirnoff as they attempt to add another title to their collections.

The former New England Patriots and BC star isn’t the only football aficionado who will be competing on the upcoming season. Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown and Denver Broncos linebacker Von Miller will also be trading in their cleats for a pair of dancing shoes.

Rounding out the latest Dancing with the Stars cast are ABC anchor Ginger Zee, Boyz II Men singer Wanya Morris, model Nile Dimarco, Fuller House star Jodie Sweetin, former The O.C. actress Mischa Barton, Donald Trump’s ex-wife Maria Maples, UFC fighter Paige VanZant, actress Kim Fields, and the mustachioed Geraldo Rivera.

Flutie’s going to have some stiff competition, but if he can dance as well as he can throw a football, then he should do just fine.
