NFL Hall of Famer Terrell Owens, 49, eyes return to Cowboys: report

Terrell Owens' agent has reportedly been in contact with the Dallas Cowboys for the 49-year-old to possibly return to the team he spent three seasons with.

The Dallas Cowboys were in the market for Odell Beckham Jr., but they may go another, much older route (no pun intended) in the receiver market.

The agent of NFL Hall of Famer Terrell Owens, who played for Dallas from 2006 to 2008, has been in "constant communication" with the Cowboys regarding a possible return, according to Sports Illustrated.

If Owens comes back, he'd be the oldest player in NFL history, surpassing George Blanda who was under center for the Oakland Raiders at age 48 in 1975.

"Terrell is ready to contribute and play any role, big or small," Gregory D.L. Daniel told Sports Illustrated. "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 claims that Owens recently ran a 4.50 40-yard dash — "which was his warm-up."

"He's a legend. We want to make history and see him break these records. If anybody can do it, it's him," Daniel added. "His three Ds are desire, dedication and discipline. He embodies that every day, even running hills at 3 a.m. on Christmas morning."

After passing on Beckham and signing T.Y. Hilton recently to go alongside CeeDee Lamb and Michael Gallup, it doesn't seem like the Cowboys are in the receiver market — let alone trying to get one who hasn't played an NFL down in a dozen years.

However, the Cowboys would be getting one of the best receivers of all time.

He ranks third all-time in receiving touchdowns (153) behind Jerry Rice and Randy Moss, as are his 15,934 receiving yards, which he trails just Rice and Larry Fitzgerald

He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2018, three years after he was first eligible, after playing for the San Francisco 49ers, Philadelphia Eagles, Cowboys, Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals.

Owens last played in the NFL in 2010 and suffered a torn ACL in the offseason of 2011. He participated in the Seattle Seahawks' training camp in 2012 but did not make the final roster. He said he trained for several teams during the 2014 season but to no avail. He played alongside Johnny Manziel in Fan Controlled Football earlier this year.
