Chad Johnson Speaks On Camera For The First Time Since His Divorce From Evelyn Lozada

Whether it’s from the heart or on advice from his PR reps, I gotta say Cahd Johnson is definitely handeling the ‘crisis’ that is his domestic dispute and subsequent divorce from reality star Evelyn Lozada.

The former Miami Dolphis star spoke to “Inside The NFL” about how he is dealing with the fall out.

In the brief interview, he hit three key points that will help him repair his image in the public eye as well as the NFL; He took 100% ownership for what happened the night he allegedly head-butted Evelyn, he apologized for his actions and he stated what his plans were to get help.

Catch a few of the excerpts below:

On why he was fired from the Dolphins
First of all I had an altercation. An altercation with my wife and the consequences of my altercation with my wife was me being released.

On The consequences of his altercation
I lost two things that I love: football and being married. Being a husband, being a lover was an honor. And I lost that. They have that saying, ‘You never know what you have until it’s gone.’ And now I finally know what they mean.”

On who’s to blame
I take full responsibility for everything. Always will. Always have. Where do I go from here? I gotta work on Chad. Chad has to work on Chad. Chad has to go deep down inside and figure out where you went wrong. At what point did you lose focus on what’s most important–Especially the game of football. There was a time where, when I touched that field Sunday, you knew what time it was. At some point, I had drifted off track away from that.”

On how he plans to address his issues
“I’m taking classes. Anger management classes. I’m trying to find out how to channel my anger in situations where I would pop off–how to diffuse those situations.”

On if he’s spoken to Evelyn
“What I need to do is work on Chad. There’s nothing I can say to her because she’s already heard it all. I can say it through my actions. Because actions speak louder than words. This is the time for me to show actions. Period.
