Someone should have kicked Johnson in the nuts. We might never have heard the mention of Heinz Field if it wasn't for his spawn. Don't forget to add Bill Walsh.

It doesn't fit with their version, therefore it isn't true... There are others.

Another option besides asking a current Bengals consultant is asking a former Bengals Oline coach who loves to talk about other players on his Twitter feed. https://twitter.com/CoachPaulAlex You might still get a biased opinion because one replaced the other.

A highly rated Guard (with high marks from PFF) is not going to simply be ignored by other teams. He is still under contract from the Bengals, therefore teams are not beating down the door but are possibly in contact with management. There are only a handful of reasons for not starting an individual that by all other observations and grades is a starting Guard. Note: We're not talking about grades from self professed experts on this board but verifiable stats from recognized experts. For those that believe that the NFL is always based upon merit have not been paying attention. Blackballing exists whether a fan is too blind to admit it or not. Giving up a little over 700 thousand should make a person go hmmm... As LeTigre would state, "Anything you say..." to which I respond, "Things a consultant might say..." 1. I am not at liberty to say. 2. This is above your paygrade.

I can't say. ... and no, that's not a convenient excuse. Don't forget his grades while in the NFL. However, there is always more than grades while playing for the Bengals which could qualify for the Jerry Springer show at times... This could be the last we hear from him. However, if someone really wanted a real answer they would ask a "consultant.". Maybe one that's been around a "few" years... ...and that is only "IF" Son of Paul has not gagged him. This is not a Miami thing either as someone has already asked me. Although, there were several connections to them, including his mother. Note: Coaches tend to copy other people's notes on players...

There is a wee bit more to this story than is being reported... Just a hunch.
