Former Dallas Cowboys coach Jimmy Johnson will appear on the CBS reality show "Survivor: Nicaragua" this fall, ESPN is reporting.
The 67-year-old former coach was not immediately available for comment but is expected to join the show's 21st season this summer.
ESPN reported that this year's show will be taped in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua.
The cable television sports network reported that Johnson will be grouped with strangers in an isolated area where contestants must complete challenges to win awards or immunity from getting kicked out of the show.
Since retiring from the NFL as a head coach, Johnson has worked for Fox Sports as a pregame show analyst.
ESPN reported that the taping of Survivor is not expected to conflict with Johnson's job on Fox.
Johnson lead the Dallas Cowboys to win Super Bowl titles in 1992 and 1993.
