Just when it felt like Bachelor Nation was on the fourth down with too far to go, they clinched a Hail Mary.
Sam Hartman, the 27-year-old quarterback for the Washington Commanders, has been tapped to be the franchise’s next leading man on The Bachelor—a decision that fans are already praising as the perfect touchdown.
The announcement was made on Nov. 13, with Hartman admitting he was already trying to devise the perfect strategies for his Bachelor playbook. After all, wooing women is a whole different ball game.
"I’m excited but also very nervous," Hartman admitted on Good Morning America. "I have a tough time holding conversation with one girl. 30 is going to be pretty tough."
But he’s got a whole team of guys at his side hoping to help him on his journey to love—though he’s taking their guidance with a grain of turf.
“My teammates were giving me some advice on the plane ride back,” the NFL player said. “So probably not going to listen to anybody on that. But no, I'm excited.”
Thankfully, he’s got a support system much closer to home that he knows has his back: his parents and brother.
“They're excited,” he said of his family. “My mom and I have a really cool relationship, and my pops is obviously just supportive. And their big thing is just be myself and enjoy the experience, and you know, trust the instincts and trust your gut.”
