WR Chad Ochocinco announced that he "voluntarily" reduced his 2012 salary from $3 million to $1 million. He did so through Twitter. It makes him look like some philanthropist, but he must have realized that this is the only chance he has to stay on the team.
He was a colossal failure last season with his $6 million salary and lack of production. The Pats reloaded on receivers and are prepared to move forward with or without him.
He probably would have been released without the salary restructure. I think he is on a short leash for the 2012 season. He is fortunate that Coach Belichick is a fan of his. I have always liked him and was excited to sign his acquisition.
It was painful to see his lack of playing time for a guy with so many skills and accomplishments. I hope age has not caught up to him. I would like to see him as the old Chad Johnson.
