T.O. Watch Continues




So whoever thought we'd see the likes of Marvin Harrison and Derrick Brooks on the free agent market for longer than a week? It's not too far fetched with Terrell Eldorado Owens, but the list of teams jumping out there to say that they DON'T want him (as seen in the photo above) is a testament to the bridges that he's burned“Terrell and I expect to have a deal in place by the end of next week if not sooner,” Rosenhaus said. in this league. But you know what? Somebody will sign him. As they should. He's got 2-3 REALLY good years left in him. 35 years old for him is like 30 for any other person because he takes such good care of his body.

That being said, here's what his agent, Drew Rosenhaus had to say courtesy Pro Football Talk:



"These are several teams that are interested in signing Terrell,” Drew Rosenhaus told us Friday morning. “I have been in negotiations with these teams. I will not identify these teams at this time.Terrell and I expect to have a deal in place by the end of next week if not sooner,” Rosenhaus said.


So there you go. The benefits of having a good agent cannot be overstated. Ask Manny Ramirez.
UPDATE 10:43:
Apparently, T.O. was spotted with Drew Rosenhaus in a Nashville airport this morning, presumably to meet with the Titans. Now, I know that it could have been a connecting flight, especially considering the fact that the Titans have stated that they have no interest. However, it's my firm belief that he probably will end up with one of the teams that say they don't want him. Keep an eye open for him.
UPDATE 2:38 PM:
Wow. The list is getting slimmer for T.O. The Raiders say they want no part of him. The Bucs say the same thing. They're taking this "locker room cancer" thing a little too literally.
