Donald Driver Makes ‘DWTS’ Debut [Video]

Donald Driver may be best known for catching passes at Lambeau Field but last night he showed the world that he could do the cha-cha. Driver made his “Dancing With the Stars” debut last night with partner Peta Murgatroyd.

Driver didn’t earn a great score but he did seem to be a fan favorite. When the judges announced that he scored a 21 out of 30 the audience booed. Host Tom Bergeron quipped:

“Just 31 minutes into the season. I think that’s a record for starting an ugly mob.”

After the show, Driver wrote on Twitter:

“Oh my God! It was a amazing night! #DWTS was on fire. I want to thank everyone for tonight. Love u packer nation and @PetaMurgatroyd.”

Driver thanked his DWTS partner again by saying:

“@PetaMurgatroyd thank u for u leadership, motivation, determination today. Truly something special. Thanks.”

Driver isn’t the first NFL player to show his grace on “Dancing With the Stars.” According to ESPN, 10 former footballers, including Jerry Rice, Hines Ward, Michael Irvin and Chad Ochocinco, have all danced on the ABC show.

Here’s a video of Donald Driver’s “DWTS” debut.
