Chad Johnson

Chad Johnson used to be one of my favorite fantasy football players. While Chad was not a consistent producer week to week in '06 and '07, in the end he put his numbers up for your team. Racking up close to 90 reception, 1,400 yards and 8 touchdowns, every season. This was the kind of production that made fantasy owners select Johnson year after year in the top 15 receivers on draft day. 2008 meltdown In the 2008 off-season Chad Johnson tried just about everything to get a new contract or be dealt. But in the end, head coach Marvin Lewis and Bengals management ... Read Full Story

2008 was the final season for TJ Houshmanzada with the Cincinatti Bengals organization. One can't help but feel said for TJ to end his great run with quarterback Carson Palmer and Oregon State College teammate wide receiver Chad Ochocinco that way.

And the NFL is holding him to it, trying not to laugh too long ... Read Full Story
