Bengals.com is reporting that Cincinnati re-signed suspended WR Chris Henry because big dummy Chad Johnson is now expected to miss significant playing time due to his recent shoulder injury.
Normally, we’d have pointed out what a crybaby drama queen Johnson was acting like after what, in real time, first looked like a routine tackle. However, when you see the play in slow-motion, you notice how he slammed down with full force on his elbow jarring that shoulder significantly. We know how bad that can be, as that’s the exact injury that ended our illustrious Division 1-AA college football career.
That, plus having to run the stadium stairs for a few hours carrying 20 lb. dumbbells in each hand as punishment for not returning to spring practice quickly enough. Football injuries were treated a tad bit differently 20 years ago.
Nice of the Bengals to quasi-admit they were wrong about Chris Henry, though.
After watching Tank Johnson on HBO’s fantastic series ‘Hard Knocks’, we kinda wish the Bears wouldn’t have dumped him, either.
