Bengals offensive lineman Mike Goff was one of 4,000 nominees to become the Brawny paper towel cover boy, but he didn't make the final cut.

        Brawny parent Georgia Pacific had a contest to find the new guy. It required a 150-word essay describing the nominee's character.

        Goff was nominated by Doug and Kelly Fisher.

        “Because he's about the best friend anyone could ever have, an obvious success and an extraordinary guy who will do anything for anyone,” Doug says.

        "We asked him if it was OK before we did it because sometimes players like to keep their private lives private. But he said sure, go ahead. He's rather proud of it.

        “Me, I think he should have made it as one of the five finalists, but I guess it wasn't in the cards.”
