Jason Garrett on T.O.

When media types caught up with Dallas offensive coordinator Jason Garrett on Sunday at workouts for college football's Senior Bowl in Mobile, Alabama, he was a man of few words when asked to comment on wide receiver Terrell Owens, the Dallas Morning News reports. "I certainly have a lot of respect for him as a player," Garrett said. "And we'll just leave it at that."

Our View: Both Garrett and Owens, whose relationship was said to have been strained by several publicized indifferences this past season, were thought to have been out in Dallas. Owens was the subject of trade rumors, while Garrett was reportedly in St. Louis over the weekend and rumored to be the leading candidate for the Rams' head coaching position. However, Owens' agent, Drew Rosenhaus, has recently put trade rumors to rest, and the Rams ditched the idea of hiring Garrett in favor of going with Giants defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo.
