That had to hurt!
In this dramatic behind-the-scenes look at the show, fans got a peek of what Chmerkovskiy did to his leg that left him benched for the week.
“I think something went down,” he said while favoring one of his legs. “It’s my calf muscle. Fuck. It just felt like something hit it […] I can’t stand on it. This is not good.”
Chmerkovskiy’s partner, “Glee” alum Heather Morris, will be dancing this week with pro Alan Bersten.

Following news of the injury, Chmerkovskiy took to Instagram to confirm the sad news.
“Sorry I was MIA. Tune in to @dancingabc today and all will be explained,” he wrote.. “Tough show for #teamMaksimumHeat and @heatherrelizabethh would have to hold it down for both of us. Please show her your love and support while I work on getting my ass back to the ballroom. #DidNotSeeThisComing #WillBeBackBetterThanEver.”
Morris also tweeted her support for her partner.
