From the AP:

Chad Johnson skipped the start of the Bengals’ offseason workouts Monday, the latest move to show he’s unhappy with how he’s perceived in Cincinnati. Johnson said in interviews last week that he is skipping the voluntary workouts to reinforce his message that he’d like to play somewhere else. The Bengals have said repeatedly that they have no intention of trading him. T.J. Houshmandzadeh, who tied for the NFL lead in receptions with 112 last season, also is skipping the voluntary workouts for the second straight year. Johnson has been a regular at the workouts until now. Coach Marvin Lewis addressed the absences with the other players. “What I addressed is that in the NFL there are a lot of different situations that occur throughout the season and the offseason, and they are not a bearing on any one particular player,” Lewis said. “Whatever occurs, this is professional football. You have to deal with it in your way.”

Chad Johnson? Upset over being a millionaire. Marvin Lewis: Blah blah blah. RandBall? Don’t care.
