Terrell Owens believes he should be the next frontman on the ABC reality series "The Bachelor."

The show has aired for 18 seasons, but Owens recently pointed out in a TMZ Sports online video that there hasn't been a black bachelor yet and he'd like to be the first.

"I'm prepped to do bigger and better things with my life," the former NFL wide receiver said. "I am looking for a special someone." Owens married Rachel Snider in January 2014, but she filed for divorce just two weeks later.

Owens retired from the NFL when the Seattle Seahawks released him before the start of the 2012 season. He ranks fifth all time with 156 career touchdowns and sixth all time with 1,078 career receptions.

After the Juan Pablo collapse of 2014, perhaps Owens would do the show some good.

Ladies, would you accept a rose from this man?
