CINCINNATI (AP) — Chad Ochocinco (oh-choh-SINK’-oh) caught a 55-yard pass from Carson Palmer in stride, then raised both arms toward a camera filming the Cincinnati Bengals minicamp from the back of the end zone.

Always, he finds the camera.

The Pro Bowl receiver took a break from dancing and dating to play some football on Tuesday. He looked rusty during his first practice since the end of last season. Ochocinco hasn’t attended the voluntary offseason practices because he’s been on “Dancing With the Stars” and hosting a cable dating show.

Palmer noted last week that Ochocinco’s absence made it tougher to run the offense in practice. The two of them shared a laugh in the locker room after practice on Tuesday.
