The Associated Press reports Dallas Cowboys WR Terrell Owens (hamstring) will not play in the team's preseason game Monday, Aug. 21. Owens went through his fifth straight practice Saturday, Aug. 19, since missing 14 in a row because of hamstring problem. "He's gotten some pretty good work in this week, and I just don't want to start over next week," head coach Bill Parcells said. "Hopefully, he'll get his first real game action next weekend." When asked how much time Owens needed, Parcells said, "I don't know the player that well, but certainly more than what he's had so far."
