Chad to Play for Another Team... The AFC Pro Bowlers

Randy Moss' exit from the Pro Bowl is Chad Johnson's gain. Moss pulled out of the Pro Bowl from an injury sustained in the Super Bowl and Chad Johnson has been invited to take his place. Johnson has now made the Pro Bowl in 5 of the past 7 seasons. He will join fellow Bengals receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh.

Trading Chad Costly

If the Bengals decided to trade or release Chad Johnson, the Bengals would take an $8 million cap hit. With such a large number, trading Johnson seems unlikely.

Chad Will Not Sit Out

After an ESPN.com report that Chad Johnson was threatening to sit out the 2008 season, Johnson's agent Drew Rosenhaus said that "Chad Johnson will play football in 2008." Now if it will be for the Bengals... that's a different story. Especially after Chad's comments about feeling "betrayed" by Marvin Lewis.
