I could get past the celebration thing if he's putting up TDs for the Skins, but the guy is in a 4-year contract and pretty well paid. Things are a little bumpy up in Cincy and he's ready to bail. What happens if JC struggles or Zorn makes a few mistakes.....not enough upside from Chad for the money and potential headaches for the Skins IMO.

For what it's worth, colleagues I spoke to that were there say that the "shove" was greatly exaggerated. It was more like a brush off, and in fact the league is privately reprimanded the media relations employee because he was the one that was excessively abrasive with CJ.
