Donald Driver Wins ‘Dancing With the Stars,’ Says It Compares to Super Bowl Win

Donald Driver has already won a Super Bowl during his NFL career with the Green Bay Packers. Everything he wins from here on out must pale in comparison to that, right?

Not so fast.

Driver became the latest NFL player to find success on ABC's Dancing With the Stars as the Green Bay wideout was announced as the winner of the 10th season of the show on Tuesday night. 

After, Driver compared his DWTS win to winning the Super Bowl, and he said it rivaled that win in Super Bowl XLV because of what it meant to his dance partner, Peta Murgatroyd.

"I think it does," he said, according to USA Today. "It's truly something special. I reached the greatest milestone in my career, and that was winning the Super Bowl. I just made my partner reach her greatest milestone, and now she's Dancing With the Stars champion."

Driver joins Emmitt Smith and Hines Ward as NFL players who have won the contest.
