CINCINNATI - News of Terrell Owens' agreement to play for the Bengals spread quickly across youth football fields Tuesday night.
Many people found out at the practice for the Evanston Bulldogs.
"I think it's a real boost for the offense. Palmer needs another receiver to throw to," said league founder Peterson Mingo.
Parents thought the wide receiver combination of Chad Ochocino and Owens could be a real threat.
"Him and Chad together? The Bengals will be hot. I'm ready, I'm a a diehard Bengals fan," Tamiko Smiley said.
While how this move plays out on the field is still unknown, one thing is for certain: the Bengals now the lead the NFL in reality show stars.
