The cast of "Dancing With the Stars" Season 24 has finally been announced. The cast is a mix of former hot stars, athletes, and other celebrities. However, one of them is probably the least known in the roster. Get to know this contestant and why he is being cheered by some analysts to win the competition.

Variety and other reliable outlets have confirmed the following as the cast of "Dancing With the Stars" Season 24:

Heather Morris - Maksim Chmerkovskiy

Erika Jayne - Gleb Savchenko

David Ross - Lindsay Arnold

Charo - Keo Motsepe

Chris Kattan - Witney Carson

Bonner Bolton - Sharna Burgess

Nick Viall - Peta Murgatroyd

Mr. T - Kym Herjavec

Normani Kordei - Valentin Chmerkovskiy

Nancy Kerrigan - Artem Chigvinstev

Simone Biles - Sasha Farber

Rashad Jennings - Emma Slater

While the sports world knows Rashad Jennings, he is someone who isn't like the other celebrities in the "Dancing With the Stars" Season 24 cast. He is considered as one of the most unpopular cast members tapped for this season. However, some analysts think he has a good shot at winning.

According to New Jersey News, betting site BookMaker.eu has recorded that Rashad Jennings is among the favorites in terms of which contestant will win "Dancing With the Stars" Season 24. He is currently fourth in the line-up. Simone Biles leads, Heather Morris is second, followed by Nancy Kerrigan at third.

So, why is a non-celebrity in the top five of favorites? It appears that Rashad Jennings' interesting background plays a role in this regard. He is currently a free agent in the NFL. He was released by the Giants earlier this year. It appears that fans would like to see him make it big in "Dancing With the Stars" Season 24 so he can somehow get back at the team that let him go.

Watch Rashad Jennings on "Dancing With the Stars" Season 24. The show will premiere March 20 on ABC. Stay tuned for more updates.
