Terrell Owens' day in training camp

July 31, 2006

OXNARD, Calif. (AP) -- A look at Terrell Owens' day in training camp with the Dallas Cowboys on Monday.

STRUTTING HIS STUFF: After beating cornerback Jacques Reeves on a quick slant in the end zone, Owens capped the play by dunking the ball over the crossbar, drawing a chuckle from an assistant coach nearby. Owens later gave a quick shoulder shimmy after catching a lob in the end zone over cornerback Terence Newman.

CAN'T CATCH 'EM ALL: Owens and cornerback Anthony Henry fought for a deep ball, but it wound up bouncing off Owens' shoulder pads. Another long pass drifted out of bounds, over two defenders; Owens leaped to grab it anyway but couldn't hang on.

WATCHING THE CIRCUS: "I'm surprised T.O. isn't beat down over the whole T.O. talk. It's certainly played out. But he enjoys it, so all the power to him. ... I just want to hype it up and feed off it. I love it." -- kicker Mike Vanderjagt.
