Chad Ochocinco Johnson played wide receiver in the NFL for eleven seasons, most of them with the Cincinnati Bengals, who drafted him in the second round of the 2001 draft. He played college football at Santa Monica and Oregon State, earned six Pro Bowl selections and three All-Pro nods, and holds nearly every Bengals receiving record. In 2011 he was traded to New England and played in Super Bowl XLVI. After brief stints with Miami, the Montreal Alouettes, and a Mexican league team, Johnson transitioned to media. He now co-hosts the Nightcap podcast and appears on Fox Sports, where he weighs in on everything from quarterback competitions to surprise-team picks. His predictions here cover player movement, game outcomes, and the occasional top-ten list — with a clear affection for the Bengals and a willingness to take positions on names like Deshaun Watson, Shedeur Sanders, and George Pickens.
