The Facts:
As Profootballtalk.com's Michael David Smith reminded readers tonight, Johnson was fined $5,000 for wearing "Ocho Cinco" on the back of his jersey before a game in 2006. To avoid getting fined, Johnson hasn't done it since then. But Johnson now has a plan for how he can get away with having "Ocho Cinco" spelled out over the "85" on his back. According to PFT, Johnson has taken the first steps in the state of Florida toward legally changing his last name to Ocho Cinco. Reported by Profootballtalk.com

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
If Johnson follows through on this, his actual, legal name will be Chad Ocho Cinco, and the NFL would then have no choice but to allow him to put his new last name on the back of his jersey. ... It might be worth noting that Johnson has been dropping hints about some big plans during appearances on ESPN Monday night and again on Tuesday morning. ... Needless to say, it will be interesting to see how this one plays out.
