Terrell Owens Workout Going Down Today

by Joel Thorman on Oct 25, 2011 11:15 AM CDT

Free agent WR Terrell Owens is hosting a workout for NFL teams today after spending the last six months recovering from a torn ACL and, no, I don't think the Kansas City Chiefs are going to be interested (though I've been wrong before).

First, the Chiefs are set at receiver this season. Second, Todd Haley has a history with T.O. So, no, I don't think the Chiefs will be interested.

I think the larger question is whether any team will be interested. Drew Rosenhaus has been touting T.O. saying he's 100 percent healthy and ready to sign with someone but I don't know who would sign him at this stage of the season.

I think it'd have to be a contender who needs a boost in the second half of the season but, even then, would T.O. be worth it? Physically, he can still help as he showed last year with 72 receptions, 983 yards and nine touchdowns. The rest of the baggage T.O. brings may make you think twice, though.

LOL...

“Hey ya’ll I need a job. I’m healthy now seriously. Tell you what… you come to me and I’ll workout for you to prove it. Seriously, just fly out here to Cali and I’ll make it worth your while.”

Glad to see his ego is still healthy.

I'll bet ya a nickel, Palmer has a new receiver to throw to after the bye.

Not really new

The Titans!

They were off to a great start with Britt and have fallen off since then. I could see him landing there.

by ChiTownChiefs on Oct 25, 2011 11:30 AM CDT reply actions

My fantasy team would be dominant if Britt hadn't gone down

I’m leading my division as it is… Oh, what could’ve been… (sigh)

I love my wife, my kids, and the Chiefs. In that order. Except on game days.

Same here man.

He was a pleasant surprise.

by ChiTownChiefs on Oct 25, 2011 11:40 AM CDT up reply actions

We can all comisserate together.

I lost Jamaal and Britt in back to back weeks, and now awaiting the verdict on McFadden. And now Santana Moss Oh and Hillis has been spotty at best for action. And Josh Freeman blows this season. Pretty much my team is Dwayne Bowe and the Ravens D.

Brutal.

by ChiTownChiefs on Oct 25, 2011 11:46 AM CDT up reply actions

But maybe it's karma for drafting McFadden.

by ChiTownChiefs on Oct 25, 2011 11:47 AM CDT up reply actions

He was a keeper from last season, along with Jamaal

You should pick up Carson Palmer...

I mean with the good luck and all that you are having.

Go Chiefs!!!!

by ravenhawk on Oct 25, 2011 12:04 PM CDT up reply actions

Any way you can trade for Phyllis Rivers?

by Tomahawk29 on Oct 25, 2011 12:12 PM CDT up reply actions

Yeah, their Randy Moss experiment worked so well.

Heh.

I was thinking the Titans

But with Berrian being released why would anyone even look at TO? How old is he now?

Too Old?

Yes.

Always some team not smart enough to learn from history.

by BinSC on Oct 25, 2011 11:33 AM CDT reply actions 1 recs

Surely someone will sign him, right?

72 recs, 9 TDs last year? If that was any other player someone would’ve signed him on the first day of free agency. I’d only root for him if he went to Baltimore to help Ray Ray win one more ring.

Baltimore is loaded at WR though.

When Lee Evans comes back, there is no room for T.O(ld).

RUN DEXTER RUN!!!!

by ARROWHEADSHANE on Oct 25, 2011 12:24 PM CDT up reply actions

Hate to say it...

but alot of teams need WRs (including the Chiefs)

He’ll probably land somewhere and I’m sure the Raiders are first on that list

by Screamer on Oct 25, 2011 12:06 PM CDT reply actions

Our first round pick was a healthy scratch for two games

Because we didn’t want to mess with the cohesiveness of our WRs or STs.

The Chiefs don’t need WRs.

by Tomahawk29 on Oct 25, 2011 12:09 PM CDT up reply actions

You misspelled one game.

Chiefs could use some depth at WR, but Owens is not a depth guy. He’ll cry like a little schoolgirl if he’s not the main guy.

by Tarkus on Oct 25, 2011 12:14 PM CDT up reply actions

I did... didn't I?

OK… one game.

And still, we don’t even really need depth at WR. Colbert has shown he is capable, so after Bowe, Breaston and Baldwin I think we’re ok. Even if one got injured we’d still have 2 legit starting WRs.

I might die laughing if OAK takes him.

Hell, they’re in the neighborhood. It wouldn’t be far for them to go to the work out.

Please God… make it happen.

by Tomahawk29 on Oct 25, 2011 12:10 PM CDT reply actions

There's no way though.

T.O. was one of the reasons that Palmer decided to “retire.”

RUN DEXTER RUN!!!!

by ARROWHEADSHANE on Oct 25, 2011 12:22 PM CDT up reply actions

I think the Titans are a likely landing spot.

They lost Britt so they could use him on a one year deal. They are in contention and it would help take pressure off of CJ (No K). T.O. is in financial trouble too, so he would probably take whatever he could get. Also, T.O. usually stays under the radar for the first year of his contract, so I think a one and done with the Titans is logical.

Rosenhouse is an idiot though to put it out there that “T.O. is in the best shape of his life.” That was his quote last week. I’m sorry, even without the knee injury, it’s impossible at his age to be in the best shape of his life. Stupid!

Rec'd

for this:

CJ (No K)

All that money is heavy, makes it hard to run fast.

by Spiderwomn69 on Oct 25, 2011 12:24 PM CDT up reply actions

Exactly.

They should have written him a check instead of paying him in quarters.

RUN DEXTER RUN!!!!

by ARROWHEADSHANE on Oct 25, 2011 12:25 PM CDT up reply actions

hes showing to be a bit of a two year wonder. I still think they ran cj into the ground, they should have kept lendale white

he at least took some of the carries away.

this is why todd haley is a lot better of a football coach for today’s nfl than jeff fisher(and I do like fisher), but haley knows that this is now a multi back league, so why not use your back at full health, full stamina, when the defense are the ones huffing and puffing

Team Pioli/Haley. Decade of the Chiefs.
