NFL Rumors: Is Terrell Owens A Possibility For The Seattle Seahawks?
Mark J. Rebilas-US PRESSWIRE

Thankfully, the NFL rumors around a Terrell Owens return to football have been quiet.  He is pretty much well past his prime and he has not shown that he can blend in and be a good soldier on a team.  However, it looks like the Seattle Seahawks might be preparing to take that plunge.

#NFL League source told me tonight that WR Terrell Owens is on his way to Seattle to visit with the #Seahawks. No word on tryout/contract

There is a chance that this is much ado about nothing but why else would TO be flying up to Seattle to visit the team?  I do not know if he is close with anyone on the team but they just cut a wideout and they are looking for anybody to become a true number one guy for that team.  Maybe they think Owens is just a crazy enough idea to work.

There is a very good chance that if this happens, it will end poorly.  Name one team that Owens left on good terms.  I believe throughout his entire life he has burnt bridges everywhere he has gone.  That is so bad that it is almost impressive.  You have to really put forth an effort to make that many people angry.  TO rubs a lot of people the wrong way, so Seattle wanting to take a risk on him fascinates me.

The NFL rumors around Owens will probably start to increase if he does indeed work out for them.  I would doubt a signing is imminent but you never know what is going to happen in pro football.  Players get hurt and teams need players ready at the drop of a hat.  Owens might be the last guy on a lot of lists but the Seahawks must think that he can still help the team out.

Get ya popcorn ready for this one.  There is no way that this does not end in a hilarious fashion.
