Jennings, currently a free agent, and his partner Emma Slater performed a fusion of a Tango and a Cha Cha to beat out Grandpa Rossy and partner Lindsay Arnold.
The 32-year-old joins Emmitt Smith, Donald Driver, and Hines Ward as the four NFLers to win the show, though it might be better to refer to him as a dancer rather than a football player as Jennings will join the show's live tour this summer.
You heard that right! The dashing Mirrorball trophy finalist RashadJennings will be joining the Hot Summer Nights #dwtstour! #DWTS pic.twitter.com/pXnkjyr06z
