Chad Johnson has been through a rough couple of days as of late, but after last night's episode of "Hard Knocks" things have turned more publically embarrassing.
Episode 2 of the HBO documentary series concluded with Johnson's final meeting with Miami Dolphins coach Joe Philbin. Johnson would have hoped talks would have remained private, but as it being a reality show, all things where caught on camera.
The lowest and most embarrassing moment of his career was captured on tape forever.
Philbin let Johnson speak first before delivering the bad news.
"Where we are as a program and where you are and where we're headed, I just don't see the mesh right now," the coach said. "I wish it was different, I wish I could tell you something more encouraging. But I just think it's best for both of us that we kind of part ways at this point in time."
Though Philbin himself seemed uncomfortable, the coach made himself clear. He is trying to create a certain culture in Miami that Johnson just doesn't seem to fit in.
"Thank you for the opportunity," Johnson said. "There's really not much more I can say at this point. I appreciate it, though. Thank you for the chance."
The scene concludes with team employees cleaning out his locker in slow dramatic fashion.
Ouch!
