Terrell Owens Alleges Someone Told Him to Stay Ready for an NFL Comeback

Former NFL great Terrell Owens is not built like other men his age. He’s 47 years old and looks as jacked as ever. That being said, could he really play in the NFL? The former Cowboys is claiming he’s been receiving some interest from at least one person who is a decision maker in the NFL.

Terrell didn’t name any names but the mystery NFL person told him to stay in shape because “anything can happen.”

“I’m not washed up,” Owens tells us … adding, “Once you know how to ride a bike, you know, you don’t forget how to ride that bike.”

Via TMZ Sports:

“I’ve been on the track, and, honestly, I just ran probably like a week ago,” Owens tells us. “I was clocked at like a 4.4. Faster than I probably ever have in probably in a while.”

In fact, Owens says he’s actually drawn interest from at least one “individual” in the NFL this summer … who the wideout says told him to stay in shape for the possibility of a signing this year.

“With that conversation that I had, they asked me to keep myself in shape — anything can happen,” Owens tells us. “And, so, that’s what I’m doing.”

Considering NFL receivers are considered old the minute they turn 30 years old, no one is going to take a flyer on a 47 year old Terrell Owens.

Could he go out there and make a few catches? Sure why not, but at this point he wouldn’t be an impact player.

The last time he played in an NFL game is 2010. That’s too much time off, sorry T.O.
