T.O. Says He's Ready For The New Season

(AP) SAN ANTONIO Dallas Cowboy Terrell Owens is healthy, happy and ready for a calm second season.

The player known as T.O., who's at training camp in San Antonio, says, "I'm feeling good, looking good -- so I've got to play good."

Owens' last season led the NFL in touchdown catches and Dallas made the playoffs after missing out for two years.

But Owens also made news for all the wrong reasons: a preseason hamstring injury, an accidental overdose on painkillers, squabbles with his position coach, a testy relationship with head coach Bill Parcells, the most dropped passes in the league ... and more.

Owens says he thinks there was a lack of concentration on his part and he doesn't fault anybody but himself.

Evidence of a new T.O. began in May.

He caught passes at the team's first offseason minicamp -- despite having a doctor's note to be on the sideline because he was coming off two surgeries on his right ring finger.

Owens caught 85 passes for 1,180 yards last season.
