Bengals: Ocho Cinco will not play against Steelers   Continue reading on NFL.com
In another sign of trouble for the Cincinnati Bengals, they deactivated WR Chad Johnson in Monday night’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers for breaking a team rule.
Essentially, Johnson was being lazy during the team’s “night before” meeting and wouldn’t abide by his coaches request to sit up in his chair.  Sure, Chad is an adult and sitting up straight is a weak excuse for yelling at a player, but after Ocho Cinco walked out of …

There was some hope earlier this season that John Lynch would sign on w/ the New England Patriots, despite being cut before the season started (see related posts below).  The Patriots have struggled a bit, but evidently not enough for them to consider using Lynch’s service on the football field.
