Erin Andrews is going to be back on the hit TV Show Dancing With the Stars and the show wanted to add Seattle Seahawks star QB Russell Wilson onto the lineup. They wanted Wilson to compete on the show as a contestant, but Wilson had to pass on the opportunity this time around. This is not the first time that he has passed on the opportunity, so the producers of the show are going to keep asking until Wilson finally agrees to get on the show.
Via Access Hollywood:
"“I need to focus on my football career right now. It’s one of those things where I’m trying to do as much as I can winning football games for the Seattle Seahawks and our franchise.”"
Wilson said that he’s going to appear on DWTS sooner or later, though.
"“At some point, I’m going to definitely do it. I love ‘Dancing with the Stars.’ I love watching, and I love dancing myself, so hopefully, I could win it.”"
I guess we will have to wait to see Wilson on that dance floor. This will not be the year. I guess he wants to focus more on winning Championships.
