He won’t get a shot but if there was one athlete in the history of the sport I would not bet against it would be TO.

Dude is just a different type of athlete.

If only he was a better team player...imagine what his career would have been.

Dak's not his QB.

He cannot run routes and his hands are average. He once was a physical freak that beat DB''s with athletic prowess alone. He lost a step when he last played, so he has likely lost amother step in retirement. Nobody will call and he is finished.

Another one.

So true. He's a Hall of Famer and he probably lived up to 60% of his potential.

He can’t run routes?

He was one of the best route runners in the league.

We could've used a healthy TO for those 2007 playoffs.
Dude was a beast

I'm sure the man will be in good shape at 70, but he was starting to get regular, nagging injuries even 15 years ago in his early/mid 30s

 

[Loso86]

Jerry Rice is 58 years old. I bet he's in better shape

Highly...HIGHLY doubtful lol

Lolol what?!

 

[Cowpolk]

TO looks more confused now than a chameleon in a bowl of Skittles

 

[ReverendFelcher]

I know Parcells didn't want him, but aside from that one day of weird drama--I liked having him here.

 

[Praxit]

..in his last year he dropped quite a few balls. Right now, he would drop many balls. Age is age.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

Folks seem to forget, Owens put up 937 yards, 9 TDs, 13.7 YPC in just 14 games (11 starts) during his last season at age 37.

That’s bonkers.

 

[JohnsKey19]

No doubt in my mind TO could suit up tomorrow and get you 5 catches 70 yards in a regular season game. Just not sure he could do it the following week(s)

 

[glimmerman]

Guessing TO won’t get that call. If he has not by now then it wont happen.

 

[Captain-Crash]

where's dez at?

 

[DanTanna]

TO had the freaky ability to get 5 yards deeper than the deepest defender. On numerous plays Romo would uncork a frigging BOMB that went above the camera viewing angle, only for it to come down in view in TO's hands 5 yards ahead of the defender. I just don't know how TO did that! It was awesome.
