Dallas Cowboys Cut Wide Receiver Terrell Owens

Dallas Cowboys Cut Wide Receiver Terrell Owens, ESPN Reports


Bloomberg -- The Dallas Cowboys released wide receiver Terrell Owens, ESPN reported March 5, without revealing where it got the information. 

The 35-year-old Owens caught 69 passes for 1,052 yards and 10 touchdowns in 16 games last season, his worst performance in three years at the Cowboys. 

Dallas signed Owens after he became a free agent when the Philadelphia Eagles terminated his contract following a four- game suspension for criticizing quarterback Donovan McNabb and team management. Owens was also suspended by the San Francisco 49ers, where he played from 1996-2003, for celebrating a touchdown on the Cowboys’ midfield logo. 

In 13 seasons in the National Football League, Owens has caught 951 passes for 14,122 yards and 139 touchdowns. At Dallas he caught 235 passes for 3,587 yards and 38 touchdowns.
