ABC announces Sam Hartman is The Bachelor
A reality TV series is once again doing well in the NFL.
ABC announced Friday that Commanders practice squad quarterback Sam Hartman will be The Bachelor for the show’s next season, which premieres March 21.
Hartman, 27, has been with Washington since entering the league as an undrafted free agent in 2024. Although he has been on and off the 53-man roster, he has yet to appear in a regular season game.
Hartman began his college career at Wake Forest before transferring to Notre Dame for his final season in 2023.
This isn’t the first time The Bachelor has chosen a backup quarterback as its main contestant. In 2004, Jesse Palmer was with the Giants as the first professional athlete on the program.
Palmer is now the show’s host.
