Bengals wide receiver Chad Ochocinco is set for a four-day tryout with Sporting Kansas City of MLS starting Tuesday. The club said Wednesday that after the tryout, it would determine whether to extend the trial period. "We're always searching for players who can help our team and bringing in new talent," manager Peter Vermes said. "We know that Chad is an exceptional athlete and that he loves the sport of soccer, and he did play a lot when he was younger. We're excited to see how his skills will translate once he arrives next week and begins training with our team." Ochocinco started playing soccer at age 4 but chose to focus on football in high school. "Due to the NFL lockout, I'm excited to be able to follow my childhood dream of playing for a Major League Soccer team," Ochocinco said.
