T.O Next Destination Is

In recent days prior to NFL Training Camp 2010, Terrell Owens has been rumored to be involved with the St. Louis Rams, Cincinnati Bengals and now the New York Jets. However over the past few hours the Rams have lost interest. Bengals quarterback Carson Palmer has been working out in California with Owens, sources said. Now the New York Jets who have aquired veterans this offseason such as Cromartie, Tomlinson, Holmes, Taylor just to name a few. Jets coming off an AFC Championship Game appearance vs. Indianapolis, were lead by pair of rookies quarterback Mark Sanchez and head coach Rex Ryan. Could you imagine Owens playing with the Bengals next to Ochocinco or even in the Big Apple, with the Jets with a head coach who isn't afraid of the spotlight either. I'm sure it'll be an interesting next few days whether Owens could end up in the AFC North with the Bengals, the division defending champions or New York. The Jets will appear on HBO Hard Knocks this summer which would be up T.O alley. After suspension of Holmes New York could have a recieving core of Braylon Edwards, T.O, Holmes and Cotchrey, also young TE Keller. This would be a major upgrade for a team that finished nearly last in NFL pass yards per game a season ago, while leading the league in rushing yards per game.
