We called it a dangerous bet at the time, and now Cincinnati Bengals teammates and fans want to see B.J. Hill pay up.
Hill jokingly took to social media right before free agency’s legal tampering window started on Monday and said he would go bald if teammate Germaine Pratt re-signed with the team.
Well…Pratt re-signed on Monday, inking a three-year deal with the team.
Fans and teammates celebrated the unexpected bit of news, of course — then Hill’s tweet started circulating again.
Here’s a look at everyone quickly recalling Hill’s comment and some of the best reactions to the Pratt news overall.
