T.J. Houshmandzadeh is one of the best receivers ever to wear Cincinnati Bengals’ stripes.
Houshmandzadeh, a seventh-round pick of the Bengals in the 2001 NFL Draft, is currently No. 8 on Cincinnati’s all-time list with 5,782 yards. His 507 receptions are fourth best. Even more impressive, his catch percentage of 65.7 percent would rank him ahead of Chad Johnson, A.J. Green, Carl Pickens and Darnay Scott on that list.
His last season as a player in the NFL came in 2011 with the Oakland Raiders, but he was back with the Bengals as a coaching intern prior to the 2015 season.
