- - - Cincinnati Bengals fans made sure the team felt the love upon its arrival back in the city after Super Bowl LVI. - Droves of fans showed up for an impromptu welcome-home committee as the team showed up at Paul Brown Stadium a day removed from the loss to the Los Angeles Rams. - In a moment that went instantly viral (within the viral moment), it was C.J. Uzomah (who else?) who dove into the crowd to greet the fans. - Uzomah told Geoff Hobson of Bengals.com the following: - “I was going to walk through the crowd. But then they rushed the gate and security was saying, ‘You better not,'” Uzomah said. “I said screw it, I’m going.’ But I couldn’t move through. They’re going crazy. You see it. I love it.” - Kevin Huber added: “That out there kind of shows you what was done and how special this season really was. This season turned the city around and got it back to a place they haven’t been in a long time.” - Some of the best moments from the show of love from the city in 27-degree weather: - - CJ Uzomah is a man of the people. He came out into the crowd to high five fans after the Bengals got home from the Super Bowl. #Bengals pic.twitter.com/CgYlbzwa3s - — Brandon Saho (@BrandonSaho) February 15, 2022 - - - - THE MUSIC HAS ARRIVED!!!
