Chad Ocho Cinco was up to his usual nonconformist ways during Sunday's 17-7 victory over the visiting Baltimore Ravens.

At one point in the third quarter, the officials reviewed a questionable catch in which Ocho Cinco stepped out of bounds before getting both feet down. During the review, he convinced an assistant coach to give him a dollar. He then walked to a nearby official to attempt to give him the bill as a bribe to call the catch in bounds. The referee would have none of it and didn't even engage Ocho Cinco in conversation.

In a message directed at Trey Wingo, Ocho Cinco explained his latest prank, "lol, just having fun bud that's all, I was gonna give the dollar to the ref to call my catch in bounds<---just jokingly though."

He then attempted to make up for the action: "In honor of today's ref, my app is $1 until midnight tonight. Go here and get it www.rockapp.com/ocho" An application dedicated solely to Ocho Cinco called "Chad Ochocinco Experience" is available on iTunes.
