Former NFL wide receiver Chad Johnson (pictured right), who was drop-kicked out of the league over a domestic violence episode involving his former wife and “Basketball Wives” reality star Evelyn Lozada, is now gainfully employed again as a CBS fantasy football analyst, according to TMZ.

Johnson, who was married to Lozada for a little over a month, was arrested on a domestic battery charge for headbutting her during a heated argument last August.
