For Ochocinco, hygiene temporarily took a back seat when it came to healing injuries.
Chad Johnson revealed an interesting method to treating sprained ankles Wednesday during an appearance on ESPN’s “Mike and Mike.” The tactic required the help of some teammates, though one can only imagine how they felt about the former NFL wide receiver’s strange demands.
“I would collect warm urine from my teammates, heat it up and put my ankle in it for 30 minutes,” Johnson said.
Johnson marched to the beat of his own drum during his NFL career, which spanned 11 seasons split between the Cincinnati Bengals (10 seasons) and New England Patriots (one season). It’s why he was so entertaining, so unpredictable and so special.
… And so grimy, evidently.
Just kidding, Ocho. Whatever works.
