NFL hopeful Michael Sam signed on to dance this spring on the upcoming season of Dancing With The Stars, the show announced Tuesday.

Sam will be joined by singer Patti LaBelle, Olympian Nastia Liukin, and actress Suzanne Somers. In previous seasons, NFL players Hines Ward, Emmit Smith, and Donald Driver had won their competitions.

Sam, 25, is the first openly gay man to be drafted in the NFL. He is currently not affiliated with a team either on a practice squad or the full roster, but he has said he plans to enter the Veteran's Combine in March.
