It seems like the only NFL superstar who wasn't on hand in tonight's The Masked Singer was Taylor Swift.
This is because it was NFL Night — the first of many themes we'll see over the course of season 10 — and the episode featured not one, not two, but three different NFL guest star cameos. First up was free agent Le'Veon Bell, who brought his Milkshake back to the Masked Singer yard to perform "I Gotta Feeling" by the Black Eyed Peas and later present a clue. To that end, fellow NFL pros Antonio Gates and DeSean Jackson also appeared later in the episode to give clues, and the trio hung out in the VIP area of the stage to watch the rest of the episode's shenanigans unfold.
Elsewhere in the episode, Group A proved once again that season 10's got some strong competition. Cow kicked things off with "Treasure" by Bruno Mars, Diver sang "I Ain't Worried" by OneRepublic, and Gazelle made Ken Jeong emotional with Katy Perry's "The One That Got Away." In a bit of irony, after Nicole Scherzinger guessed S'more was Adam Levine last week, this week the contestant sang Maroon 5's "Moves Like Jagger" and officially dispelled that notion, despite doing a good rendition of the song.

To make matters interesting, the first of three wildcards this season was introduced, and let's just say he's a really big dill. That's right — Pickle officially joined the competition with his performance of "Pinball Wizard" by The Who. He made things entertaining from the start by saying he knows each and every one of the panelists, "just a little bit different," and that he's bringing that "BDE – big dill energy" to the show. Or, he joked, "Just like Nick, that BPE — big pickle energy."
At the end of all that, it was finally time for the audience to vote, and Diver was ultimately told to surface. Scherzinger and Robin Thicke both guessed Jersey Shore's Pauly D, and Jeong stuck to his guns and guessed Vanderpump Rules star Tom Sandoval, which Jenny McCarthy-Wahlberg piggybacked off of. In a massive first for the show, Jeong was right two weeks in a row as Diver was revealed as Sandoval. The panelist joked this is "Season Ken," and, well, he's not wrong... so far.
