"First NFL show of the new season, great to see Jason [Bell] and Osi [Umenyiora] again and then straight over to Strictly Towers for the first full day of dancing, which was weird, but I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would."
And even though Dan has been loose-lipped about Strictly in the past, he wasn't giving away who his pro partner was as he teased: "I met my pro partner this week. I can't tell you anything about her because I'll be killed by a Strictly ninja.
"But what I can say? She's patient, she's kind and she's lovely." We can't wait to see who it is!
The 44-year-old went on to explain how everyone was "nervous" as they headed out, but added there were some "brilliant dancers" in the group.

"He told me you have to go full naked for it, the big prankster," he said. Fans rushed to the comments to wish the presenter "good luck" and fellow contestant Sara Davies had a laugh about Aljaz's attempted prank.
She wrote: "He's such a prankster that Aljaz but you had a lovely glow about you this morning (as opposed to us looking like Oompa Loompas last night!)"
The cast now know who they'll be paired up with, but we have to wait until the launch show on 18 September to find out!
Dan kept the fact that he was doing this year's Strictly a secret from everyone, including his Breakfast co-host Louise Minchin, who was shocked when he was unveiled live on air.

"I only told my kids last weekend so they're not very happy with me either, hardly anyone has been in the circle," he shared.

On why he decided not to tell Louise, the presenter added: "I'm very sorry I was told it would make great telly if I didn't tell you, Louise!"
Bursting into fits of laughter, she said: "I don't believe it, Mr Walker! You totally had me with the glasses, oh wow! What I'm really annoyed about is that no one has told me anything, Dan! I can't believe it!"
