Even though he’s had his worst statistical season of his NFL career this year, wide receiver Chad Ochocinco is very thankful that the Bengals traded him to the Patriots before the season started.
“I sent everyone (in Cincinnati) a letter, a thank you note,” said Ochocinco. “I think that’s the best I can do. Everybody who had anything to do with me being there, I hope they have it framed,” Ochocinco said Wednesday of his former team, which traded him after the lockout following a 10-year stay when he broke most of the Bengals’ career receiving records.
“That’s just the way it goes. (Owner) Mike (Brown) was good to me. The city was good to me. The media, we had our ups and downs. I made it fun. The fans were epic for 10 straight years. Of course, I had my riffs and raffs. Like any human being I’m not perfect. Other than that, there’s nothing bad I can actually say, period.”
It was certainly a blessing for Ocho...
