Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Terrell Owens is expected to play on Sunday when his team takes the field against the New York Giants in an NFC Divisional Round playoff battle.
Owens suffered a high ankle sprain against the Carolina Panthers in Week 16 and missed the regular-season finale for the Cowboys, who received a first- round bye in the playoffs after earning the top seed in the NFC with a 13-3 record.
"Terrell Owens said he is going to play and I believe him," Cowboys head coach Wade Phillips said during Friday's press conference "To what degree and what level remains to be seen. Unless something unforeseen happens, I think he will attempt to play and I think we'll let him play."
Owens returned to practice for the first time on Thursday. He participated on a limited basis and ran a few routes in the brief portion of the session open to the media.
Owens had 81 catches for 1,355 yards and 15 touchdown receptions this season. He lit up the Giants in the two regular-season games, catching nine passes for 212 yards with four touchdowns.
