If Chad Johnson wants to be Chad Ocho Cinco, he's going to have to cough up $4.8 million says the NFL.
Reebok is complaining because they had already pre-made 100,000 C. Johnson jerseys whose value would be drastically cut if the official jersey read Ocho Cinco.
a source with knowledge of the situation said it would cost him the cost to make the jersey, which is roughly 60 percent of the retail price. That would be about $48 a jersey or $4.8 million if that 100,000 number is reality.There's actually a precedence to this matter as Jerry Porter wanted to change his number after the 2007 season. The NFL said he too would have to buy up the unused inventory of jerseys. Sadly his total was only $210,000.
Maybe Chad Whatever can pawn off his grillz to help pay off the $4.8 million. I think it's worth it!!
