Years may have come and gone since Terrell Owens last played in the NFL, but not many things have changed.
Owens was recently involved in a three-team trade in Fan Controlled Football that sent him from the Zappers to the Knights. Recently released footage may show why he was traded because it shows Owens chewing out his QB and telling him throw him the football.
During an interview on The People’s Pregame: NBCLX’s Fan Controlled Football Podcast hosted by Kahlief Adams, the 48-year-old guaranteed he could run a sub-4.5 40-yard dash, claiming he can currently run it in 4.4 seconds:
“I guarantee you I can run under 4.5. I can run a 4.4 now. … Would that still move the meter to make somebody pull the trigger of doing it? Who knows. But I know I can run. Like I said, speed is part of the football game, but there’s a lot of people that run 4.4s, you know what I mean. But that doesn’t mean that they can actually play. For me to do that at my age and understand and be knowledgable about the game, that’s beneficial for any team.”
Owens, a Hall of Famer, had a tremendous NFL career, catching 1,078 passes for 15,934 yards and 153 touchdowns in 219 games.
