Question for anyone who got the Cinicinatti vs Baltimore game Sunday

If anyone watches NFL on CBS, whenever a player makes a touchdown or makes a big play, CBS displays the name of the player and how many yards they went by the scoreboard. First off, did Chad Johnson of the Bengals make any touchdowns or make any big plays? If so, did CBS display his name as Chad Johnson-x number of yards or did they put "Ocho Cinco x-number of yards?" Remember, Chad wants to be known as Ocho Cinco ;D.

During warmups prior to the previous week's game, wide reciever Chad Johnson of the Bengals was walking around with the name "Ocho Cinco" on the back of his jersey (his uniform number is 85, Chad apparently paid little attention in Spanish class).

The NFL was not amused, and fined Johnson, so I highly doubt CBS would have shown anything besides his real name on their broadcasts.
 
First of all, I can't imagine CBS stooping to using "OCHOCINCO" to identify a player on a graphic ... then again, I live near seattle, where you'd hardly know that Ichiro has a last name, let alone ever see it used in any graphics.

Secondly, OCHOCINCO accomplished very little yesterday and failed to score.
