The reason Chad Johnson is out of an NFL job is because of his actions off the field, not on. Chad Johnson has been looking and is still looking for a team to give him a second chance to prove himself. Could a longtime friend be the answer?! I’d love to see Chad on the field this season!

According to Chris Wesseling at NFL.com:
Former Miami high-school opponent Andre Johnson is trying to recruit the teamless wide receiver for a roster spot on the Houston Texans.
“I haven’t set up any meetings. I could put a few words in, but that’s not my call,” Andre Johnson told Comcast SportsNet Houston. “I think he’ll get another opportunity. I think he’ll be very successful, get back to the Chad that we’re used to seeing playing football.”
A contrite Chad Johnson continues to express regret over the domestic battery arrest that led to his release from the Miami Dolphins last summer.
“I’d love to get a second chance to play the game that I love,” Chad Johnson said via Comcast SportsNet Houston. “It was taken from me and I think I’ve learned my lesson and really, it’s in God’s hands.”
Chad Johnson, predictably, is on board with the idea of joining the Texans. “If I could be that last piece,” Johnson said, “especially with me being somewhat humble and being in a position where I have to prove myself again, which could be scary.”
