Report: Eagles won't renegotiate Owens' contract

[BAMAPHIN 22]

The Philadelphia Eagles will not renegotiate the contract of star wide receiver Terrell Owens, The Philadelphia Inquirer reported Wednesday.

Owens fired longtime agent David Joseph in April, hired Drew Rosenhaus and started asking for a renegotiation just one year into a seven-year deal worth almost $49 million.

The Eagles have intimated they wouldn't redo the contract, and owner Lurie told the newspaper, "It's not even an issue."

Wow. I can't say I don't blame them, but I'm somewhat surprised. If this TO situation gets more serious, he could very well end up being traded... AGAIN. :eek:

I think T.O. has a point in the fact that nfl contracts favor the owners.....but the fact that it is T.O. trying to get the deal redone......if it was another player i think the reaction might be different

trade T.O. to the raiders..

I like the way that the Eagles are handeling this situation. I hope that loud mouth TO does sits out this year.
