Will Chad (formerly known as Johnson) Ocho Cinco buy up all the old jerseys?

Settled as Does not get to wear Ocho Cinco.

Chad Ocho Cinco will keep his dual identity for the rest of the season.

The Cincinnati Bengals receiver formerly known as Chad Johnson said Thursday he'll wear his old name on the back of his uniform for the rest of the season. It would have cost him a lot of money to make the switch for this year.

"We've just left it alone," he said, in an interview. "I'll just wait and do it next year."

Johnson announced yesterday he will not wear an Ocho Cinco jersey this season. The question should be settled as such.
