Male cheerleaders to make their debut this NFL season

by Staff writer

For the first time in the history of American National Football League (NFL), there will be male cheerleaders on the sidelines.

“Still can’t believe I’m one of the first males in history to be a pro NFL cheerleader!” dancer Napoleon Jinnies tweeted after being selected

The selected dancers will be dancing alongside their female teammates and doing the same moves, USA Today reported.

They will dance and shake and do all the traditional moves normally done by ladies.

Cheerleading has been a part of the NFL since 1954 when the Baltimore Colts added a cheer squad to their marching band.

Today, 26 of the 32 teams in the NFL have official cheerleading squads.
