News; Meet the Cincinnati Bengals' New Kicker: Chad Ochocinco

Well, the new kicker for one night, anyway. With the team's regular kicker, Shayne Graham, out of the lineup due to injury, Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Chad Ochocinco filled in and not only booted the opening kickoff of the second half inside the 10-yard line, he also kicked an extra point following the game's only touchdown -- a 24-yard strike from J.T. O'Sullivan to Chris Henry -- in Cincinnati's 7-6 win on Thursday night.



Give Ocho credit; he drilled the extra point, almost as if he had been doing it his entire career.

Just in case you're wondering, the most recent position players to actually make a kick in a regular season game include Mark Simoneau, who made an extra point for the Philadelphia Eagles during the 2005 season, and Wes Welker, then playing for the Dolphins, who kicked a field goal and an extra point in a 2004 game against New England. There was also Doug Flutie converting the first successful drop kick since 1941 in Week 17 of the '05 season.
