Terrell Owen's son, Terique Owens, was signed as an undrafted free agent by the San Francisco 49ers this weekend. Here was TO's reaction to his former team signing his son...
quote:
"I’m proud of him. All we ever asked for is an opportunity. He’s wanted to make his own name and carve his own path to get to where he is. We would’ve loved to have gotten drafted, but he’s got his foot in the door. Now he has to continue to do all the right things and show people he can play. Like I told him, he doesn’t have to be me; just be himself," he said.
"He’s just as good as any of these other kids who got drafted; the only thing is some of them have played more football than he has. So, he should be encouraged…I started in Junior High. I was on the team, but I wasn’t playing…I didn’t play Varsity until like my 11th grade year. He has tremendous upside and knowledge he still can gain. He can run fast and catch, just didn’t play at an earlier age & really get going to like his Senior year. So, I’m excited to see him grow more now."
