From 2006 --

The three-time Pro Bowl performer and consummate showman, one of the most explosive playmakers in the league at any position, on Thursday signed a new contract with the Bengals, ESPN.com has learned. The lucrative deal includes a one-year extension, through the 2010 season, and an option for the Bengals to extend the contract through 2011, if they so desire.
In essence, by restructuring the remainder of Johnson's existing contract, which was set to run through the 2009 campaign, the Bengals created a six-year deal with a total value of $35.5 million.

Big cap hit implications if the Bengals deal Chad.
Quote:
the Bengals would take an $8 million salary cap hit by trading Johnson before June 1.
While the Bengals aren't always known for their business acumen, even they can figure this one out.
