It says "Chad Javon Ochocinco is an American football wide receiver for the Cincinnati Bengals of the National Football League." I think it should be edited to say "Chad Javon Ochocinco is an American football wide receiver and occasional kicker for the Cincinnati Bengals of the National Football League." He did kick in a 2009 preseason game, and I'm sure he will sometime again if the kicker for Cincinnati gets hurt. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.177.190.9 ( talk) 06:33, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
In a Yahoo! Sports article, Chad Ochocinco promised to change his surname back to Johnson if he was shut out by Darrelle Revis. The website is here [1], but I will post the paragraph that has this quoted.
"And then, of course, there was Chad Ochocinco, who promised to change his surname back to “Johnson” if Revis shut him down. Two matchups later, the man soon to be formerly known as Ochocinco had collected a pitiful 28 yards in one game, and had his 120-game catch streak broken in the other."
The Bengals just lost to the Jets last week, so he may change his name to Hachi Go, or he may just ignore what he said. User:Six-thirty-three —Preceding undated comment added 15:59, 17 January 2010 (UTC).
Chad Ochocinco was born Chad Johnson in 1970 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.233.51.129 ( talk) 17:26, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Please add the following to this page.
"On November 18, 2010, Ochocinco released Mad Chad, a video game for iPhones through Rock Software. The mobile game became the #4 downloaded game on iTunes in under 24 hours and a viral hit due to buzz on Twitter."

Partly done: Actually, neither of those are credible sources for things like sales figures, since they're both self-posted by the company itself. Second, the claim of "under 24 hours" does not appear on the page. Third, there is no way that they can know why it hit that amount--the guess that it's generated by "buzz on Twitter" is just that--a guess. Nonetheless, we can use the source to verify that the game exists, just not the sales figures. So I've added a comment saying that the game was released on that date. If you can find independent reliable sources to verify the sales figures, please make a new edit request.

Chad announced today, 1/25/11, via phone conversation on SportsCenter, that he is legally chnaging his name back to Chad Johnson as soon as he can get the paperwork done. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.110.213.148 ( talk) 21:22, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
Since he isn't changing his name to Hachi Go, should it be in the article? 71.142.237.133 ( talk) 03:47, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
I know this is a minor issue, but I have noticed an issue with many editors changing the word "soccer" in the section chronicling Chad Ochocinco's recent tryout to "football". This is confusing to readers and not in compliance with WP:ENGVAR, which states that articles with strong national ties use that nation's version of English and colloquialisms. I would like to politely ask editors who have considered this change to please consult the guidelines and keep consistency throughout the article by not changing the wording. JakeH07 ( talk) 04:38, 2 April 2011 (UTC)
Okay I want to make this clear. Chad Ochocinco is NOT a member of the New England Patriots YET. the fact that his infobox (as of this writing) already reads "New England Patriots - No. 85" is a MAJOR jumping of the gun. I am reverting it until official announcements have been made. any objections, please disucss below. Thanks.-- Boston Burkenation ( talk) 21:36, 28 July 2011 (UTC)

Is it known what his wonderlic score was?-- Conor Fallon ( talk) 04:25, 26 January 2012 (UTC)
I believe they are only relevant if someone wins several (The examples given by 24.147.30.7 fall under this category) or wins one, but doesn't win a Super Bowl. I also feel since he didn't even play in the championship game it's even technically a personal accomplishment.-- Rockchalk717 ( talk) 19:22, 1 February 2012 (UTC)
"Ochocinco" found 111 times in this short article (I'm not sure why, but "cinco" is found 125 times, unless I made a mistake). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.184.248.6 ( talk) 08:55, 28 May 2012 (UTC)
The opening of this article states he played for the Bengals, Patriots, and Dolphins. He technically never really played for the Dolphins, just tried out for the team and was cut in week two of training camp. I would suggest this be changed. Kevinmac81 ( talk) 14:49, 19 August 2012 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: Not moved. As User:Xoloz points out, disambiguating terms mustn't themselves be ambiguous. We don't know what kind of 'football' would be indicated, American or association football. There was not enough support for ' gridiron football'. Someone might consider a new move proposal with one of the other alternatives such as 'wide receiver.' EdJohnston ( talk) 03:59, 25 April 2014 (UTC)
Chad Johnson (American football) → Chad Johnson (football) – Well, he is under contract with a Canadian team, so its not quite American football anymore; better to be more precise than add unneeded disambiguation. ViperSnake151 Talk 23:34, 17 April 2014 (UTC)
The result of the proposal was procedural close. Concurrent RMs should not run on the same page. Please wait for the previous request to be resolved. You are free to suggest this or any other alternatives in that discussion. -- BDD ( talk) 18:36, 20 April 2014 (UTC)
Chad Johnson (American football) → Chad Ochocinco – Per WP:COMMONNAME.

Johnson is under contract to play (or has signed to play for the Montreal Alouettes; currently he has not played for the team in a game. Editor Rockchalk717 equates "signing a contract" as "playing" for a team; however, in the April 18 edit at 17:42, editor Shawn in Montreal notes that "once again, he's been signed. That's all. He hasn't played a single snap in any game."
Johnson hasn't played for the team, has he? He can still get hurt before a first game or get cut (like happened to him after he signed with Miami), can't he? Television fan ( talk) 18:53, 20 April 2014 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: not moved. Clear consensus against using "gridiron". A reasonable amount of support for this article being the primary topic, but we would need to have a proper multi-move RM for that to have a consensus. So I'm closing this and will start a new RM immediately. Jenks24 ( talk) 08:31, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

According to both the CFL and NFL player stats, Chad Johnson was born in LA, CA. and not Miami, FL as this article states. Both of the citations mention Miami as places he grew up, and as his "hometown" but neither state that he was born there. I think the article should be amended.

Just wanted to get a feel for this -- is it trivial or nontrivial that Mr. Johnson witnessed the FBI's arrest of his neighbor, Roger Stone? Given that Johnson has commented upon the subject repeatedly, and numerous national and state news outlets picked up the story (including retrospectives a year after the event), I'm inclined to include it as a noteworthy part of Johnson's biography -- but clearly my opinions are not universal. It appears that the account " User:Roger roger 6am," who has not made any edits since 2019, attempted to add the event to the page when it happened and the text was removed within the day by User:Dermato1. Anyways, posting this so folks can comment. Tagging User:Jayron32 out of courtesy. RexSueciae ( talk) 21:14, 9 March 2021 (UTC)

According to both the CFL and NFL player stats, Chad Johnson was born in LA, CA. and not Miami, FL as this article states. Both of the citations mention Miami as places he grew up, and as his "hometown" but neither state that he was born there. I think the article should be amended. Opinions? -- Gavers23 ( talk) 21:41, 23 October 2014 (UTC)

Just wanted to get a feel for this -- is it trivial or nontrivial that Mr. Johnson witnessed the FBI's arrest of his neighbor, Roger Stone? Given that Johnson has commented upon the subject repeatedly, and numerous national and state news outlets picked up the story (including retrospectives a year after the event), I'm inclined to include it as a noteworthy part of Johnson's biography -- but clearly my opinions are not universal. It appears that the account " User:Roger roger 6am," who has not made any edits since 2019, attempted to add the event to the page when it happened and the text was removed within the day by User:Dermato1. Anyways, posting this so folks can comment. Tagging User:Jayron32 out of courtesy. RexSueciae ( talk) 21:14, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
