[ESPN] MIAMI — Out of work and not ready to retire, Chad Ochocinco found a job back in his hometown.
The former Pro Bowl receiver signed with the Miami Dolphins on Monday, four days after being released by the New England Patriots.
The signing came after Ochocinco had a tryout with the Dolphins, who are thin at the position and dropping a lot of passes in offseason drills. He’s likely to join the team for this week’s OTAs, which continue through Wednesday.
“Congrats to Chad,” tweeted his agent, Drew Rosenhaus. “It’s nice to come home.
People love him. People hate him. I’m pretty neutral on Ocho. I used to hate him, but then he was on “Hardknocks” with Cincy. Best “Hardknocks” personality in the history of the phenomenal TV series on HBO.
You think that didn’t play a part in the where Ocho signed? Child Please.
Now, Ocho will be back on “Hardknocks” this summer, with Miami.
