It's official: Antonio Brown to appear on 'Dancing With the Stars'

No ”Monday Night Football,” yet, but Antonio Brown will be a Monday Night dancer.

Steelers receiver Antonio Brown was officially announced as a cast member for Season 22 of ABC’s ”Dancing With the Stars” this morning. The news broke on ESPN’s ”SportsCenter,” which, like ABC, is owned by Disney. Season premiere of DWTS, which airs on Monday nights, is March 21.

“The pressure is definitely on me to win,” said Mr. Brown, adding he’s discussed the show with former DWTS champ Hines Ward. ”Hines already set the standard with Steeler nation.”

Mr. Brown, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Dapper Dan Man of the Year, is paired with professional dancer Sharna Burgess.
