BALTIMORE (WJZ) — Former Baltimore Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis withdrew from “Dancing With The Stars” Monday night due to a foot injury.
Lewis and partner Cheryl Burke ended their run on Monday’s show.
In a series of tweets, Burke said dancing with Lewis meant a lot to her but it’s important to consider his health.
“Being an athlete means pushing yourself past your limits, but also knowing when to take care of your body,” she wrote. “Unfortunately, due to injuries he sustained to his foot, our journey to the mirror ball ends tonight.”
so knowing when to take care of your body. Unfortunately, due to injuries he sustained to his foot, our journey to the mirror ball ends tonight. Ray, I wish you a safe and speedy recovery and look forward to seeing you do the squirrel dance again very soon. #TeamRAVENous
