Terrell Owens Sign With Seahawks

AP
Look like things may be looking up for 38 year old Terrell Owens.  The Seattle Seahawks announced Monday night that they had agreed to a one year deal with free agent wide receiver Terrell Owens.  A source told ESPN's Ed Werder that Owen's received a one year deal worth approximately $1 million.  The Seahawks was impressed with Owens who worked out with the team Monday where he ran the 40 in 4.45 seconds.

Owens has had a rough time in the last few years.  Owens hasn't played in the NFL since the 2010 season and underwent knee surgery after suffering a torn anterior cruciate ligament in April of 2011.  After several attempts of returning to the NFL, including a public workout in which he invited teams to come watch him workout, Owens received no interest from any NFL team this past season, which led him to playing in the IFL for the Allen Wranglers.  Owens was then removed from the Wranglers and loss his ownership percentage in the team after issues with the team.

Owens last season in the NFL with the Cincinnati Bengals, he had 72 catches for 983 yards and 9 touchdown.  Last year with the Wranglers Owens had 35 catches for 420 yards and 10 touchdowns in 8 of 11 games.
