The latest Dallas Cowboys signing, Terrell Owens, has made quite the splash in his new surroundings. The former Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver is in his second NFL season and is off to a strong start. He has seen a considerable increase in receptions, yards, and target numbers. His ability to produce at that level has him in position to challenge for the team’s top tight end spot right now. But did you know that Owens has a secret weapon? He also happens to be one of the smartest and hardest working athletes of his generation.
During this week’s podcast, the MMQB’s Ben Goessling and Todd McShay invite Owens onto the podcast to discuss his breakout year and some of the challenges he’s faced in his new role as a starter. The two talk for about the type of relationship Owens has with the fans and media and how that’s been a motivator for him on the field. They also delve into the Eagles’ coaching staff and how those players have handled Owens. In the end, they had this to say about Owens:
I thought at first that Owens would struggle to adjust to a different offense, and that he might have a short leash in the pocket because it would appear he’s still trying to figure things out. But no, Owens has been just as poised as ever. He’s earned the trust of coaches and the media and has been spectacular on the field. Now, he just needs to earn the trust of his teammates.
It’s easy to see why the Eagles made the decision to give Owens a long-term contract. He’s a talented, physical player who can really make an impact on any team. But like many athletes, Owens has to do a little more than just play to be paid. This lengthy interview gives you a behind the scenes look at how Owens goes about his daily activities and how that impacts his football game.
If you enjoy podcasts that feature football stars and famous athletes, you’ll love The GQ Boys. A podcast that covers sports from all over the world, it’s a must for Eagles fans. During this podcast, Owens talks with writer Steve Hartman about working in New York, living in New York, his love of football and more. It’s a great intro to a podcast that covers interesting topics from the pros.
When you’re done listening to The GQ Boys, you’ll know exactly why the Eagles made the decision to offer Terrell Owens a six-year contract. He is one of the best tight ends in football, and the Eagles needed him to be. He has shown that he can be a great leader and that he can be a very good receiver. He even had some excellent catches during the 2021 season. He looks ready to take the next step and be a very good tight end for the Eagles.
