Terrell Owens takes a shot at the 49ers as Hall of Fame decision approaches

Apparently, former NFL wide receiver Terrell Owens still holds a grudge against his former team -- the San Francisco 49ers. He appears to still be resentful about the way things ended with the 49ers. While arriving at an airport (most likely in the Minneapolis area), a TMZ reporter asked Owens which team he would enter the Pro Football Hall of Fame with -- if he is selected as an inductee on Saturday.

Of course, it is important to note that the question is irrelevant because NFL players do not enter the Hall of Fame associated with just a single team. They simply enter as a player and associated with each team in which they played. However, Owens answered the question anyway.

"Well, it won't be the Niners," he responded.

You can watch Owens' response below.



Owens, who was drafted by San Francisco in the third round of the 1996 NFL Draft, was with the 49ers until 2003. He also spent time with the Philadelphia Eagles, Dallas Cowboys, Buffalo Bills, and Cincinnati Bengals.

Owens certainly posted Hall of Fame-worthy numbers during his NFL career. The six-time Pro Bowler and five-time first-team All-Pro registered 1,078 career receptions for 15,934 yards and 153 touchdowns. Owens ranks eighth all-time in receptions and is second only to Jerry Rice in all-time receiving yards. He also ranks third in all-time receiving touchdowns and fifth among all NFL players in touchdowns.

49ers allowing Arik Armstead to leave was a 'tough' decision

By David Bonilla

Arik Armstead was the longest-tenured member of the San Francisco 49ers, joining the team as a first-round draft pick two years before head coach Kyle Shanahan's tenure began. Despite the team's efforts to retain him by negotiating a restructured contract, they ultimately released the veteran defensive lineman when no agreement was reached. "It was real tough," Shanahan said this week about the situation. "I mean, we've been with Arik since we've been here, and I know he was here a couple of years before us, so it wasn't something we really wanted to happen. It's one of the tough things when trying to keep a team together, and just where it goes with the salary cap and stuff." Betting on himself, Armstead wanted to test free agency to see if anyone would be
