Well, not for the reasons I mentioned, but...
Dolphins cut Chad Johnson
Dolphins cut Chad Johnson
Quote:Well, it was fun while it lasted.
Receiver Chad Johnsonââ¬â¢s stint with the Dolphins has ended. A league source tells PFT that the Dolphins have decided to cut the veteran wideout.
The news was first reported by Jay Glazer of FOXSports.com.
It didnââ¬â¢t happen because of poor performance (although based on Johnsonââ¬â¢s performance in the preseason opener it may have, eventually). It happened because Johnson was arrested on Saturday night for head-butting the woman he married nearly a month ago.
The move comes not long after coach Joe Philbin said he hadnââ¬â¢t spoken to Johnson but planned to, sooner rather that later. Per the source, Philbin and Johnson met before Johnson was cut.
Itââ¬â¢s unknown whether and to what extent any portion of the meeting was captured by the Hard Knocks cameras and microphones.
