Chad Ochocinco Signs With Miami Dolphins

"Chad Ochocinco will achieve his childhood dream of playing for the Miami Dolphins.

The South Florida native, and formerly unemployed NFL receiver, worked out for the Dolphins before Monday's OTA sessions and was signed to a one-year deal that includes incentives Monday night according to a source.

Ochocinco, who was waived by the New England Patriots last week, will compete for one of the five or six receiver spots on the 53-man roster. But there's also a chance he could earn a starting role.

Reggie Bush has known Ochocinco for a few years, and was willing to vouch for the attention-starved receiver, who has been miscast with a diva receiver label.

"Good guy, good player," Bush said. "I personally think he still has a lot left. Knowing him he wants to prove he can do it at his age, still play the game.""

I reckon he'll do well there. It seems like a good fit for him.

They'll still do nothing next season, but he'll do OK.
