Texas Wranglers release Terrell Owens Former Cincinnati Bengals receiver Terrell Owens during the Pro Football Hall of Fame game on August 8, 2010 in Canton, Ohio. ALLEN, Texas, May 31 (UPI) -- Allen (Texas) Wranglers co-owner and wide receiver Terrell Owens has been released by the Indoor Football League Team, the team announced. Owens, a former NFL player, had joined the team in February and reportedly had a six-figure salary, CBSDFW.com reported. "It's disappointing and unfortunate, but [Owens] could no longer be tolerated by the Wrangler organization," Wranglers owner John Frankel said. Tommy Benizio, team president and co-owner, said on the team's Web site Owens did not show up for a scheduled appearance at a children's hospital with other Wranglers players and coaches and that his not showing was "the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back for Mr. Owens. ... It is not the desire of the Allen Wranglers' organization to disappoint fans by having our most notable player miss a scheduled appearance." CBSDFW.com said Owens' ownership stake also was terminated because he violated his contract Owens had played for the San Francisco 49′ers, Philadelphia Eagles, Dallas Cowboys, Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals. He caught 35 passes for 420 yards and 10 touchdowns in eight games for the Wranglers in 2012. Owens was not required to play in all the Wranglers' road games.
