While most NFL teams slow down in their off-season, Terrell Owens' off-season is just heating up.
Denver sources have told FOXSports.com that the Pro Bowl wide receiver and his agent Drew Rosenhaus went to Denver on Monday to meet with Broncos officials at the house of coach Mike Shanahan. Shanahan wasn't present at the meeting, according to sources, but others in the organization met privately with Owens.
Owens and his agent have been given permission to seek a trade out of Philadelphia. And teams such as Denver, Dallas, Tampa Bay and Miami have been linked to his services.

Good, T.O. and his agent can go ruin another team.
Wait and see...I predict a future Cowboy. Jerry likes the "spirited one"
I'm getting an Oakland vibe.
Oakland's other Look-At-Me receiver, Randy Moss, has already said there isn't room there for both of them.
Andy Reid said last night on a Philly sports show: "We can hold on to TO for as long as we want to."
Translation: If you want him, be prepared to give up a draft pick.
And if Dallas or Washington want him, they should be prepared to pound sand.
Not a chance in hell of the Eagles letting that happen. Wait and see.
Hey! Wasn't this guy on Survivor: Hell?
I wouldn't want Randy Moss because he's a thug and takes plays off if he's not the featured receiver. Owens never does that. Love him or hate him, when he plays, he's giving it everything. I'd give him a look if I was Jones. I also think it would be pretty cool to see T.O. go against his old Eagle team. Just because Philly had a down year doesn't mean they're gone, and having a guy with a little extra motivation wouldn't hurt. He also knows the entire Eagle playbook (probably still has a copy), and knows the Skins and Giants. Sign T.O., figure out a way to move up in the draft high enough to draft Vince Young, beef up the O-Line, and the Cowboys might be ready for prime time.
NFC East ping.
And to those on the Giants ping list...I've lost the list.
During the Wild Card playoff round, I asked some of you to try and maintain the list. Do any of you still have it?
Never mind, found it.
I'm personally rooting for the Steelers. Cowher finally deserves a ring.
Then again, the Seahawks have no ring at all...
Well, I like the Steelers more, so nya! :P
It was never a question fo smarts, but a question of sanity.
TO's mind is cottage cheese. He can't help himself. He'll be a good boy, until he just can't anymore. Then he'll be TO again.
Not to worry for Cowboy fans. He's taking his act to the AFC. The Eagles will make sure of it.
I think, though, if either team gets fainting goat syndrome, it will be the Seahawks. There's something about a team history. It gives the players confidence.

Yep and they have to keep paying him too. Each year, his yearly salary escalates so they will take a huge salary cap hit just to be contrary.
I wouldn't put it past the Eagles at this point though.
