Friday morning, Chad Ochocinco was named Wes Welker's replacement in the Pro Bowl. Upon hearing this news, Chad promptly decided to challege Chris Johnson to a foot race in Miami*:
@ChrisJohnson28-bruh im going to the pro bowl with you, you want to race for game checks, loser gives the money to those n HAITI n need
Johnson has yet to accept the challenge via Twitter, but that didn't stop Ochocinco from telling Adam Schefter that the race is on ...
@Adam_Schefter Adam i am racing Chris Johnson, the loser is giving there pro bowl check over to those in need in Haiti
... and from talking trash:
@ChrisJohnson28 bruh bruh where you at, im gonna dust you, im not running routes this time i get to run in a straight line=fast ass hell!
Hopefully this is documented on video. And hopefully Chad brings his checkbook. Because Chris Johnson is the fastest man in the NFL and Chad has zero chance of winning. Bruh, bruh.
*This isn't the first time Ochocinco's challenged a faster opponent to a race. He took on a horse two years ago, and won. Although he did have a 100-meter head start.
