It sounds as though 49-year-old Terrell Owens is eyeing a comeback to an NFL, specifically with the Dallas Cowboys. At least, that is what it appeared to be happening before more information came out.
Owens and his agent have been campaigning for the 49-year-old Hall of Famer to receive a tryout with the Cowboys.
“We’ve been in constant communication with Jerry Jones’ office over the last few days about the possibility of him returning to the Cowboys,” Owens’ agent Gregory D.L Daniel, Esq. told Wilson. “Terrell is ready to contribute and play any role, big or small. He’s in outstanding shape. He looks no different than he did years ago. I watched him running routes full-speed with DeSean (Jackson) and he looked great. He didn’t drop a pass.
Daniel told Wilson that Owens recently ran the 40-yard dash in 4.5 seconds.
The Cowboys were seeking help at wide receiver for most of the season. They were often connected to Odell Beckham Jr. but talks seemingly broke down and they went and signed T.Y. Hilton on Dec. 12.
Despite the news, the 49-year-old Pro Football Hall of Famer will not be signing with the team at this time, NFL reporter Dov Kleiman reported Wednesday, citing a source. It seems Ownes wanted more money.

It is that time of the season when all the teams that are going to the Playoffs are trying to improve their rosters.
Owens, who currently plays for the Knights of Degen of Fan Controlled Football (FCF), was inducted in 2018 to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in his third year of eligibility.
During the 2010 season, his last one in the NFL, Terrell played for the Cincinnati Bengals and had 983 receiving yards and nine touchdowns in 14 games.
