In a confident statement, he looks forward to emerging out to be victorious in a hypothetical 1 on 1 showdown against Buffaloes’ Coach Prime. During his prime, Ochocinco was a dynamic wide receiver with the Cincinnati Bengals. On the other hand, Deion was a part of the Falcons during his ‘prime time’. While Deion is in the HoF, Ocho may never make it due to his absence of SB rings.

During an interview, he was asked in case of a hypothetical 1 on 1 matchup between him and Coach Prime. To this, Ochocinco came up with a cheeky reply, “Oh, it’s me easily. Easily. Easily. And I would do him exactly as I did others and I’d tell him exactly what I’m running and still beat him”.

Sanders, in the meantime, is a two-sport star, renowned for earning eight Pro Bowl selections and two Super Bowl rings. While Ocho’s confidence is well-earned, Deion is no slouch either. With Both Ocho and Prime in the second innings of their careers, their fans are looking forward to witnessing their football prowess shining through in their coaching decisions. Ochocinco’s confidence has been palpable amidst speculation about the former wide receiver returning to the NFL.

Even though he has a short stint with the Cleveland Browns receiver where he trained them in 2016, Ochocinco has never worked as a coach at the NFL level.
