Following in line with the all-Redskins, all-the-time sports week, The Washington Post is reporting that the ‘Skins are interested in disgruntled Bengals’ wide receiver Chad Johnson.
Numerous league sources, including some with direct knowledge of conversations between Snyder, Cerrato and recent head coaching candidates, have affirmed that the Redskins have interest in trading for Cincinnati wide receiver Chad Johnson, with two league sources saying Johnson is eager to land a hefty new contract from Washington.
Acquiring an elite receiver is Snyder’s top priority, league sources said. The Bengals have said they have no intention of trading Johnson, but his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, is working quietly to broker a deal, the sources said.
I’ve said before and I’ll say it again: Chad Johnson needs some new scenery. However, with the hire of a first-time head coach in Jim Zorn, is it wise for Snyder to bring in a dynamic personality like Chad Johnson? Just putting it out there.
