PITTSBURGH -- The Cincinnati Bengals have deactivated receiver Chad Ocho Cinco for Thursday night's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers for violation of a team rule.

 

The Bengals would not elaborate on why Ocho Cinco was deactivated, and said there would be no comment until after the game.

 

However, ESPN senior NFL analyst Chris Mortensen reports that according to a team source, Ocho Cinco was 45 minutes late to a meeting Wednesday night.

 

He and coach Marvin Lewis then got into a verbal disagreement. Ocho Cinco was sent home, and rookie Jerome Simpson -- who was to have stayed back in Cincinnati with an ankle injury -- traveled to Pittsburgh Thursday
