Chad Johnson and Boomer Esiason are this year’s inductees into the Bengals’ Ring of Honor, the team announced Thursday morning.
“Boomer and Chad were both exceptional players,” said Bengals president Mike Brown. “If you look at the statistics, Boomer has a long list of quarterback firsts here. And Chad was a superb athlete who was probably the quickest receiver we have had here. They could have moments when they just carried the team by themselves. Both players are very deserving of this honor.”
Johnson and Esiason will join Ken Anderson, Willie Anderson, Paul Brown, Isaac Curtis, Anthony Muñoz and Ken Riley in the Bengals’ Ring of Honor.
