Dancing With the Stars champ J.R. Martinez was in Indianapolis over the weekend for the Super Bowl, during which he got to mingle with some of the biggest stars in sports and music.

Among those stars was Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow, whom J.R. spoke to about - what else? - being on Dancing With the Stars.

In an interview with Celebuzz, J.R. revealed, "I actually did come across Tim Tebow, and we chatted about [Dancing With the Stars] for a second. I thought he'd do pretty well on the show!"

But does that mean Tim is actually up for the task? Not so fast, according to J.R.

"He said, 'Maybe in a year' ... That's pretty much what he said."

As for who J.R. would personally like to see on the show, the military vet, who recently teamed with The Phoenix Society to help raise awareness for burn victims, has his sights set on one of daytime's most popular ladies.

"I think Sherri Shepherd from 'The View' would be good," he said. "We talked about it a couple times when I was still in New York. I think she'd do good on it."
