The former Cincinnati Bengal said he regularly bought fake jewelry and flew commercial to save money while in the NFL.

Ochocinco was widely regarded as one of the best receivers in the game when he was playing. His superb play combined with his antics made him a household name.

Johnson caught 766 passes for 11,059 yards and 67 touchdowns in his career with Cincy and the New England Patriots.
He made six Pro Bowls and two All-Pro teams, both first team.
