Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis has denied an ESPN report that the Bengals turned down the Redskins offer of a first-round pick this year and potentially next for Chad Johnson. The Washington Times reported Tuesday that although the Redskins have approached the Bengals about a deal for Johnson, they haven’t made a specific proposal. Citing team and league sources, ESPN.com says that the Redskins offered their first-round pick, No. 21 overall this year, and a conditional third-rounder in 2009 that could escalate to a first rounder if Johnson and the Redskins hit certain performance levels, But speaking at a Tuesday news conference for this weekend’s draft, Lewis said that Bengals president “Mike Brown has not received a phone call.” The club has been adamant in not trading the disgruntled five-time Pro Bowl wide receiver and ESPN’s Chris Mortensen said the Eagles and Cowboys have also been told Johnson is not on the market.
