Chad Ochocinco can't make up his mind. The Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver is going back to his old last name for now — Chad Johnson.

"I don't have a choice right now," Chad told ESPN's Trey Wingo on a segment of NFL live  "I've done enough with the Ocho thing."

Even though the change isn't complete yet, Chad promises it will be soon.

He originally changed his legal last name from Johnson to Ochocinco before the 2008 season, so he could proudly display his nickname on the back of his jersey, a moniker he gave himself to represent his jersey number, 85.
