Does a serious football journalist or Cincinnati beat writer know more than you're rank and file hardcore Bengal fan about how business is done here?  Likely.  Does the average national internet NFL blogger/podcaster/social media "like" *****?  Unlikely.  People just make this stuff up.

Journalism today is nothing but getting clicks.  Telling a story that is has to be truthful went out of style about 25 years ago, was it ever in style for sports writers. Fact is AJ has been a low key guy with the media his entire time in Cincinnati.  Unless the Bengals medical staff screwed him he has no motive to change how he operates with the press.
