Embattled quarterback Terrelle Pryor, who announced last week that he would forgo his senior year while the NCAA probes Ohio State players for alleged violations, has found a supporter in Cincinnati Bengals wideout Chad Ochocinco amidst the scouting report.

The longtime Bengals wide receiver, who caught a few passes from Pryor, was reportedly quite impressed with the former Buckeye signal-caller as indicated in his Twitter feed.

When asked about his scouting report on Pryor Friday, the outspoken Ochocinco doubled down on his original claims.

"I had the first chance ... actually yesterday was my second day throwing with Pryor,” Ochocinco told Waddle & Silvy on ESPN 1000 in Chicago. "Dude's arm strength, timing was unbelievable. I don't care what ESPN said, I don't care what the report said, I saw with my own eyes. I've seen every NFL quarterback play.”

”Dude, it was unbelievable, with the right coaching — listen to what I'm saying — with the right coaching he can become a great NFL quarterback because he has all the tools. He has all the tools that these scouts look for in a quarterback," added the six-time Pro Bowl and three-time All-Pro.

Ochocinco also indicated that his assessment on Pyror has nothing to do with their business connection with agent Drew Rosenhaus, who is also the agent of Pryor.

“Dude, what is Rosenhaus?” Ochocinco said in the interview. “You know, I don’t sugar coat nothing. I don’t care who my agent is. If you suck I’m gonna tell you, ‘You suck, this is what you need to work on.’ I just said he has great arm strength and timing but with the right coaching he can become a great quarterback.”

The 33-year-old NFL veteran said that, along with Pryor, he’s caught passes from 13 NFL quarterbacks during the lockout.

    • This is huge may not be a trap game but this plays a major part in what they want to do. If we can get some pressure on Sam we know what he does with pressure coming hit and heavy. Also we may be able to take the top off their defense a backup safety trying to stop TMac or Cooker over the top or forcing him to play the backend should allow us to run the ball somewhat effectively. Either they allow some runs or we take some shots and if Bryce and whoever can connect deep we’ll be in business for another big time win against a top notch opponent. Might not be a trap game but health travel game plans all play a major role in each weeks game plan and this week might be leaving our way. We’re missing some replaceable pieces they’re missing key anchors to the offense and defense major difference time to solidly ourselves at one of the top teams in the nfc tomorrow fellas buckle up.
    • Yes.  If I am not mistaken, we need to sign Coker to the ERFA tender and insist that XL spends his spring and summer at a WR camp and not Coon huntin on his four wheeler.  XL was raw when we picked him--which is why I wanted to go another direction--and we are seeing how raw.  He is basically learning a position.     The Panthers will make their move in 2026 to be an NFL powerhouse behind Bryce.  Bryce needs intelligent WRs who catch the ball.  That said, we need a solid #2 to challenge XL and make cutting him easy, if necessary.  A #2 WR (intented to be a #1 by now) with under 400 yards is embarrassing.   On offense, you have to ask, "Where can we get better?"  In my view, #2 WR, TE (although they are improving) and maybe C (again, if we re-sign Mays, he is trending up and at 26, entering his prime--I say stay with him and find competition later in the draft (not good for C).  OL depth maybe?  In other words, XL is a glaring weak spot.
