NFL Football Odds: Terrell Owens Will Be Back in 2011 Says Agent

Terrell Owens will be back in the NFL Football says super agent Drew Rosenhaus, and even sooner than you think.

News came Monday that T.O. recently underwent surgery for his ACL and would be out for six months, likely missing the entire 2011-12 season. However Rosenhaus revealed to ESPN that the 37-year-old receiver had his ACL repaired way back in April, and that he would be ready for the 2011 season.

"He's many, many months into his recovery now. He's doing fantastic," Rosenhaus told ESPN. He said Dr. James Andrews, who performed the surgery on Terrell Owens, was confident the receiver could play as soon as August.

Rosenhaus went on to say that speculation of Owen's retirement were "nonsense. " Adding, "he is a legendary healer. He comes back from injury faster than anybody I've ever seen."

However, Rosenhaus is notorious for exaggerating the abilities of his clients. Just two weeks ago his was touting the first-round talent of Terrell Pryor.

Rosenhaus would not reveal how Owens injured the knee but said it did not happen while the receiver was taping a TV show for VH1, as one source told ESPN senior NFL analyst Chris Mortensen. Another source said Owens tore the ACL during a personal workout but there is still no official confirmation.

"He's been around people for months that had no idea he had this surgery," Rosenhaus said.

As for who he'll play for when football is finally back, it's difficult to tell. Sources say the Cincinnati Bengals have no plans to bring him back, therefore it will be another offseason where the receiver with a bad attitude and hall-of-fame credentials will have to find a new home.
