“Chad has unfinished business,” Rosenhaus said. “He has unfinished business with the Patriots. They were very generous to him last year, and he’s interested in giving the team his best. He feels with a offseason, with a great offseason, the lockout hurt him, it’s a tough system, he’ll learn the system, he’ll get accustomed to it, and I think he’ll do a lot better. So, he’s excited. He’s ready to make an impact.”

Ochocinco had just 15 catches last year, a big disappointment. He believes it will be different this year. There won’t be a lockout, for instance.

“With the lockout, he missed all of the offseason program,” Rosenhaus continued. “We represent a lot of guys who have played in that offseason over the years — notable (Donte’) Stallworth, he’s back — and it’s a very tricky offensive system to learn. And it’s very precise. Now, Chad has all offseason, he’ll be in the workouts, so we’re excited about it.”
