Former Chippewa standout football player Antonio Brown has danced his way into the quarterfinals of ABC's "Dancing With the Stars" on Monday night.

The two-time All-American punt returner and his partner, Sharna Burgess, performed a tango set to the Rolling Stones' "Paint It Black", a performance that required Brown to change his persona.

Junior wide receiver Antonio Brown finished with 13 catches for 178 yards Wednesday in CMU's 44-41 double-overtime win against Troy in the GMAC Bowl. Brown also had a kickoff return for a touchdown.
