Chad Johnson, who was named to the Pro Bowl six times as a wide receiver during his career in the NFL, is attempting a comeback in the XFL as a kicker

The XFL, which is aiming to fill a gap for football fans during the NFL off-season, launches at the start of February. The 42-year-old Johnson, who last played in the NFL in 2011, believes he can make it as a kicker. He said he is “as excited as hell” after securing a tryout in Houston next week, and has hopes of one day kicking in the NFL.
