Chad Ochocinco Johnson hasn't played in the NFL since 2011, but he appears to be ready to play again.
The 39-year-old receiver sent a tweet to the Giants following their several wide receiver injuries, highlighted by Odell Beckham. The Giants say Beckham has a broken ankle, which would mean he's going to miss the rest of the season. So, Johnson said, "What's up?"
@Giants Hey big head

In addition to Beckham, receivers Brandon Marshall, Sterling Shepard and Dwayne Harris were all hurt. Harris has a broken ankle, which keeps him out for likely the whole season. Marshall has a sprained ankle and was carted off the field. Shepard suffered an ankle injury, although the severity looks unclear.
There's no doubt the Giants will be looking at the free agent market to add a receiver, but Johnson would me a major longshot. He's probably half-joking with his job request anyways.
As for the Giants, it will be interesting to see who they add at receiver with so many injuries.
UPDATE: Turns out Terrell Owens wants a job, too.
Hey @Giants let me know if you need an interim wide receiver!

Owens said earlier this year it's "a joke" he wasn't on an NFL roster to begin the season, and claims he can run a 4.4 40-yard dash.
