Bengals’ wide receivers Chad Johnson and T.J. Houshmandzadeh are skipping the team’s off-season workouts, and both are apparently unhappy with their contracts.

But their quarterback, Carson Palmer, isn’t concerned about having a pair of starting receivers missing in action.

The Bengals are three days into mini-camp and the offense is looking good, that is except for the fact the team’s top two wideouts, Chad Johnson and T.J. Houshmandzadeh, are nowhere to be found.

“My frustration level? I’m at zero right now,” Palmer told the Dayton Daily News.  ”I’m not frustrated at all.  I’m happy and excited to be back on the field myself, whether they’re here or not.  I’m excited to be back with these guys, the guys that are here.”

None of this is a surprise as the team did not expect either wideout to show up for the workouts. The real question is when we will see them? T.J. should return to the mix by time the team heads to Georgetown, but Johnson, if he gets his way, may never play for the Bengals again.

With the two out, the team’s other wideouts, including veterans Doug Gabriel and Glenn Holt, are getting plenty of reps. If Johnson does return to the team it is going to be interesting to see how the roster shakes down and what the depth chart will end up looking like.
