There's a chance he could have played Sunday. He started catching balls in practice today. I'd sit him now. No need to rush him back against the Titans.

from WFAA.com:

Breaking News According to a Dallas Police report obtained by news 8, Dallas Cowboys star receiver Terrell Owens attempted suicide Tuesday night. The report also says that Owens was depressed and reportedly took prescription pain pills. A woman companion observed him putting two pills in his mouth. The woman says the prescription of 40 pills was filled on September 18th and until yesterday he'd taken only five pills. According to the police report, Owens was asked if he'd taken the rest of the prescription. Owens said yes. According to the report, police also asked if he was trying to harm himself.

Report: T.O. attempted suicide


08:26 AM CDT on Wednesday, September 27, 2006

By TODD ARCHER / The Dallas Morning News


Dallas Cowboys star receiver Terrell Owens attempted suicide Tuesday night by swallowing prescription pain medication, according to a Dallas police report obtained by WFAA-TV.

The report says Owens acknowledged to police that he had taken the pills and was trying to harm himself, WFAA-TV reported Wednesday.

Owens was treated at Baylor University Medical Center for an undisclosed reason.

According to the station, doctors were attempting to induce vomiting.

Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said late Tuesday he was unaware of Owens’ trip to the hospital, and Owens’ agent, Drew Rosenhaus, and publicist, Kim Etheridge, could not be reached for comment.

Last week, according to Cowboys coach Bill Parcells, Owens had a reaction to the pain medicine he was given following surgery in which a plate was inserted into his right hand to stabilize a fractured fourth metacarpal. Parcells said Owens became ill and could not work out, but he was improved the next day.

On Tuesday, Owens did not speak with the media, but he appeared to be in good spirits.

He continued conditioning work on the side with associate trainer Britt Brown and caught passes. He was wearing gloves and had his ring and middle fingers on his right hand taped together.

Earlier Tuesday, Parcells said Owens would practice some today and he had not ruled Owens out from playing Sunday at Tennessee. Owens was wearing a bone growth simulator Tuesday to help the healing process. According to Parcells, the swelling in Owens’ hand had gone down, and the biggest challenge for Owens would be handling the pain of catching passes.

“I have to see him out there being a confident player,” Parcells said. “I don’t want him out there thinking about something. If it’s going act as a deterrent, I don’t want that because that would eventually hurt us. But if he can get to the point where it looks like he can function and he feels pretty good about it (then Parcells would play him).

“I’m talking to him every day, seeing how he’s doing. We’re moving forward. We have a lot of time between now and the game.”

[Txbroadcaster]

My Uncle broke his foot..They gave him pain medication...One night out of nowhere he takes like 20 of them in a suicide attempt..For no known reason. When he woke up after the whole event, he could not explain why he did it. He said he did not even remember doing it. The Doctor said it was a reaction to the medicine.

[PPHSfan]

If he had taken 35 pain killers, he would not have gone back home. No matter who he is.

So he did go home??

I thought it was some kind of law, if you tried to commit suicide, you were held for observation for 48 hrs (at least)!

[kaorder1999]

i havent read anywhere that he went home...I think he was talking about a txbroadcasters post

terry....where did you hear/read that?

[Txbroadcaster]

The POLICE report says he admitted to hurting himself...So this is not a media made up event...Now as I said before he could have had a reaction to the medicine...One thing that stands out...He did not take all the pills at once..The rescue worker saw him taking two..Usually someone who is killing themselves takes all the pills...not two at a time.

from ESPN

Owens left the hospital early this morning, The Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported. A hospital spokeswoman told The Associated Press early Wednesday there was no patient registered as Terrell Owens, although federal privacy laws allow people to block their name from being released.

Dallas police officials would neither confirm nor deny details of the report but said there was no criminal case pending. The Cowboys have called a 2:30 p.m. ET news conference.

Publicist denies T.O. suicide report
By MAC ENGEL and CLARENCE E. HILL JR.
Star-Telegram Staff Writers

DALLAS -- Terrell Owens' publicist is vehemently dening a report that the Cowboys receiver tried to commit suicide Tuesday night.

Owens was depressed and may have taken as many as 35 prescription pain pills, according to a police report, which listed the event as an attempted suicide.

Kim Etheridge, Owens' publicist, was described in the report as "a woman companion" who said she observed him putting two pills in his mouth."

She said Wednesday morning that Owens had an allergic reaction to taking pain medication and supplements.

She said he did not intentionally try to harm himself.

Lt. Rick Watson, a Dallas police spokesman, said at a media briefing Wednesday morning that "a medical situation" had occurred and that there is no investigation.

He declined to answer questions or to verify the accuracy of the police report, although he did pass out redacted copies.

"This is a high-profile person," Watson said. "We looked into it and determined that there was not a criminal offense in this incident."

"We would do it the exact same way" no matter who was involved, he said.

Etheridge said Owens "is fine."

"He will be leaving the hospital today," she said.

Owens is being treated at Baylor University Medical Center.

Etheredge disputes the claim in the report because she said Owens was groggy at the time he was being questioned.

According to the police narrative, the woman said the prescription of 40 pills was filled on September 18 and, until Tuesday, Owens had taken only five pills.

The police report said Owens was asked if he had taken the rest of the prescription. Owens said, "Yes."

According to the report, police also asked if he was trying to harm himself. Owens answered, "Yes."

That Owens was groggy and lethargic was the reason Etheredge called 911 in the first place.

Etheridge said Owens was in pain stemming from the fractured right hand, suffered against Washington two weeks ago.

He underwent surgery to have a plate and three pins placed in the hand last Monday.

Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said at the time that Owens was having a bad reaction to the pain medication.

Etheridge said Owens experienced more pain and discomfort on Tuesday.

He took some pain pills and did some "microcurrent" treatment.

She said he also took some supplements and "it kicked in a reaction."

"When I went to grab him, he was out of it," Etheridge said. "That’s why I called 911."

Etheridge said Owens did not have his stomach pumped at the hospital and did not vomit.

No, I 'm not saying he took the pills just for a media reaction, but the guy is seeking attention, needing attention at a higher level....he needs HELP, that's for sure. What cracks me up, is you die hards, that are thinking, "Oh well, if it was a suicide attempt, he'll be back playing in a month"...GOOD GRIEF....GET A GRIP!! You think the NFL wants a suicidal player running around, are you kidding me??? No matter what the outcome is, what they decide he did, he needs some SERIOUSLY long term help.....if you guys cared about him, that's what you would want for him....personally, I think his running days are over. Still......poor Jerry....looks like someone pi$$ed in his Post Toasties!!!! :weeping: :weeping: :weeping:

The Dallas PD is FORCED to investigate, by law, suicide attempts. IF they do not investigate then it will be ruled out as a suicide attempt.

[kaorder1999]

They keep saying that Criminal Charges are not going to be filed. Suicide and Suicide attempts is no longer a criminal offense in Texas. From what I understand, for the well being of the "suspect" they do have to rule rather or not they believe it was an "attempt" so that proper care is given to the "suspect"

this could be the chance for the Cowboys to get out of their contract with him....if they wanted to of course. I may be wrong but purposely causing harm to yourself is grounds for contracts being voided in the NFL. Someone told me that a long time ago but have no idea if its true

"We determined at this time this is not a criminal offense," Lt. Watson said, refusing to answer any specific questions about the incident.

"If you want the 911 tape, you'll have to make the request to the fire department," Lt. Watson added.

Dallas Fire-Rescue spokesman Joel Lavender said paramedics responded to the call for help within three minutes and were able to transport the patient to the "nearest medical facility" in less than one minute.

hey people show some compassion. sure he is rather odd at times, but he is a good-hearted person.

everyone should tune in to the jim rome show on the radio. he is bringing up alot of good points, and alot of paramedics and docs are calling into the show giving their input.

reportedly when police or paramedics asked him if he was trying to harm himself, he said "Yes". however, his publicist said that TO was just "grogging" because of the overdose and that it was affecting his thought process.

[htowntransplant]

rome's interview with Tom Friend, a guy who contributed a piece on T.O. for espn magazine, is very imformative about TO and his life growing up.

[RMAC]

What I can almost see is this as a career changer for him. Part of me says now he's gonna take off the rest of the season for rehab and counseling, then he'll decide to hang up and cleats and move to Tibet to be a monk. I hope not, but I could really see this changing his career, but maybe it'll be for the better. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

[AggieJohn]

irvin said that t.o. told him, i took more pain pills than i should, but i didn't OD

[Adidas410s]

the press conference is to start at 1230 and you can watch it on ESPN.com

[neck_06]

IMHO, i think that you people need to lay off T.O. i don't think he tried to commit suicide. and even if he did, the chior........thats pretty low, he may be the worst person in the world, but he is still human, and every human deserves help if it can be given.

he didn't try to kill himself, he was trying to get better so he could play (the same thing he did with a broken leg in Philly), but you people don't see that...all you see is someone that you love to hate, someone that you love to kick when he is down.....i didn't see anyone making a big deal about it when Ken Griffey Jr. DID try to commit suicide......people tried to help him, and didn't kick him when he was down.........i just think its a little messed up.

I might be the only one that thinks this but the way i see it is T.O. is more trouble than hes worth. Everytime I turn around i hear hes hurt or hes in trouble. I really could give a care less if hes a superstar or whatever you wann call him.. hes more trouble than hes worth PERIOD!

[shankbear]

T.O. and Michael Irvin need to just simply go away. Go far away boys. T.O. is just another wasted, Maurice Clarett-like player. All the talent and no character. None.

you cant put TO and Clarett in the same sentence. TO doesnt spend time in federal prison. TO played in an NFL football game with a secerly injured leg. Does he have issues? Of course. Is he a criminal? No

are u comparing TO to clarett???last i checked clarett is going to jail four three years...TO was trying to get better for his game on sunday so he could win...TO acually cares if he wins or not clarett just wanted to "get his goose on"...and he didnt have that much talent he got cut by the team that can use any RB, denver.

[shankbear]

Same class. Never said he went to prison. Never said he was a criminal. Just a PUNK. He will take his millions and then do the most stupid things. He goes beyond spoiled. Pitiful I guess.

[PHS Wildcats]

35 pills, I'm sorry. Since playing college football, I've had operations for a broken ankle, a torn MCL, and a broken wrist.
The most pills I've taken at one time is 5, So I know what pain is.

I've never liked the Cowboys or T.O. but football is the last thing that should be on his mind. I pray for him and his family that everything will be ok.

Police: Terrell Owens tried to kill himself

By Jaime Aron / AP Sports Writer
September 27, 2006

Updated 12:09 p.m. Flamboyant Dallas Cowboys receiver Terrell Owens tried to kill himself by overdosing on pain medication, even putting two more pills into his mouth after a friend intervened, according to a police report obtained Wednesday.

Owens left the hospital late Wednesday morning, giving reporters a "thumbs up" but making no comment as he was driven away in an SUV.



Publicist Kim Etheredge said in various interviews Wednesday with Dallas-area media that the police have gotten the story wrong. She said she was with Owens, who was having trouble because he'd mixed his pain pills with supplements. She said she called for help because he was becoming unresponsive.

Etheredge did not immediately respond to repeated calls and e-mails from The Associated Press.

The Dallas police report said Owens was asked by rescue workers "if he was attempting to harm himself, at which time (he) stated, `Yes.'"

The report said the 32-year-old Owens told his friend "that he was depressed." Details of the police report were first reported by WFAA-TV.

Police Lt. Rick Watson said during a brief news conference that he could only confirm that paramedics called police to say they were taking Owens to the hospital. He said no more details would come from the police because no laws were broken.

"This is a high-profile person. We looked into it, and we determined it is not a criminal offense," Watson said. "This a medical type of situation that occurred."

NFL Network analyst Deion Sanders said he spoke with Owens shortly before his release from the hospital and that Owens was in good spirits.

"The fact that it has been reported a suicide attempt, he's laughed at that notion. It was a case that medication that was taken wasn't accepted well in his system with the other vitamins he's on," Sanders said.

Watson and fire department spokesman Joel Lavender cited privacy laws for the lack of information they could provide. Lavender said more details could come from the 911 call. The AP filed a request under the Freedom of Information Act to get the contents of the call.

"Let's just look at the tape, review the tape," Lavender said. "I'll give you an honest answer once I know something."

At the police news conference, Watson released a version of the police narrative with certain sections blacked out. The full report was obtained by several news outlets and reported first by WFAA. The AP received the full version from WFAA.

The friend, who is not identified in the report, "noticed that (his) prescription pain medication was empty and observed (Owens) putting two pills in his mouth," the police report said. The friend attempted to pry them out with her fingers.

The report also said the friend told rescue workers that a prescription for 40 pills was filled on Sept. 18, and that Owens "had only taken five pills up to this date."

According to the police report, Dallas Fire and Rescue was called Tuesday evening regarding someone "attempting suicide by prescription pain medication." Officers arrived to find Owens being stabilized by ambulance workers, who then took him to Baylor University Medical Center, where the police report said he was treated "for a drug overdose."

Owens was hospitalized late Tuesday because of what his publicist said was an allergic reaction to pain medicine he was taking for a broken hand. Doctors reportedly tried to induce vomiting.

Owens, one of the league's top receivers during his 11-year NFL career, is best known for wild stunts on the field and other publicity-seeking antics off it.

When the Cowboys signed him to a $25 million, three-year deal in March, they said their background checks indicated no red flags. In fact, team consultant Calvin Hill — who mostly deals with troubled players — said during training camp that his department was not involved with Owens because he didn't have a history of those kinds of problems.

He missed most of training camp, and three of four preseason games, because of a hamstring injury. He was late for work during his recovery and was fined for it, but Owens laughed it off, saying he overslept. He said it had happened before, though not with Dallas, and would probably happen again.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger during a game a week ago Sunday. The next day, doctors screwed in a plate so the bone could heal without fear of further damage. Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said last week that the pain medicine made Owens ill.

Owens had not practiced since the injury, but because Dallas had a bye this past weekend he did not miss a game. He was expected to practice Wednesday, and Parcells had said there was a chance Owens could play Sunday against Tennessee.

Owens had been especially looking forward to the Cowboys' game after that — Oct. 8, in Philadelphia, against the team that dumped him midway through last season only months after he helped them nearly win the Super Bowl.

Owens was seen laughing and joking on the practice field Tuesday morning. He chatted briefly with reporters in the locker room in the afternoon and seemed fine. A 2-inch scar on the top of his hand was puffy but not wrapped, and he said the swelling was going down.

While in the locker room, he took a pill from a white paper bag and looked at another medicine bottle that was in the bag. He also called a business partner about a towel-wrap venture they're starting and joked to TV cameras that he wasn't talking until Wednesday and today was only Tuesday.

"My little boy knows better than that," he said, laughing, as he plopped onto a sofa in the middle of the locker room.

Also Tuesday, Owens was involved in launching a national campaign for the National Alliance to End Abuse, an organization aimed at helping at-risk youngsters. He appeared at a high school Tuesday morning and was scheduled to visit others but had to cancel because of changes in the team's practice schedule.

A hospital spokeswoman said early Wednesday there was no patient registered as Terrell Owens, although federal privacy laws allow people to block their name from being released. Owens' publicist and agent, and the Cowboys, did not return repeated calls from The Associated Press. No teammates or Cowboys officials were seen entering the hospital late Tuesday night.

Owens has played two games for the Cowboys, catching nine passes for 99 yards and a touchdown.

Owens, already a top receiver with the San Francisco 49ers, burst to prominence in 2000 for his celebration of two touchdowns on the star logo at midfield of Texas Stadium in a game against the Cowboys. A Dallas player blind-sided him after the second one.

The legend of T.O. grew when he celebrated another touchdown by pulling a Sharpie from his sock and autographing the ball in a 49ers game at Seattle. He's also borrowed a cheerleader's pompoms, done sit-ups on his driveway before TV cameras and mocked Ravens tough guy Ray Lewis' celebration in a game against Baltimore.

Before a Monday night game against Dallas last season, Owens took part in a risque promotional stunt with one of ABC's "Desperate Housewives" that later prompted an apology from the network.

Owens was heavily praised while with the Eagles for playing well in the February 2005 Super Bowl, seven weeks after ankle surgery. However, his relationship with quarterback Donovan McNabb deteriorated soon after and the organization suspended him in midseason and later got rid of him amid contract complaints and other personality squabbles. Team owner Jeffrey Lurie said later that, even with the Super Bowl trip, he regretted having ever signed Owens.

[Old Tiger]

I would rather see the medical report because that is the actual cause. The 911 recording is what the person thinks is wrong.

[PHS Wildcats]

Why is everyone so worried about hime playing in Philly, wow is football more impotant that getting himself right. I guess that's what the world is coming to:doh:

IMO...If you're paying someone 10 million a year (that's a guess), they should be entitled to know EVERYTHING about that player.

[texas'10]

Yea you got a good point. Do any of yall actually think it was attempted suicide, or just the police trying to make a story?

[kaorder1999]

absolutly nothing....

[texas'10]

They just said $25 million

Bill told the reporters that they probably knew more than him, and his answer to every question was, "I dont know", then he left

[texas'10]

She looks like she may have overdosed.

[Adidas410s]

If there is ever a time that I've believed him...it is now. He doesn't look like his goofy, joking, smiling self. He isn't grinning after every answer like he always does. He is coming across as honest and straight forward.

Now she definitely looks like she's had a few too many of something...

[big daddy russ]

I don't have a whole heck of a lot against T.O. The only reason to dislike him is because of his ego, something that just about every pro athlete I've ever met (and I've met quite a few) has.

Sure, he can be hard to get along with. He seems like a loner by nature, but one who likes attention. Isn't that the same as Joe Horn, Sonny Jurgensen, and *gasp* Michael Irvin? Remember that Irvin wasn't liked by everyone on the Cowboys. He was a cokehead, alleged drug dealer, womanizer, and all-around bad guy, but he was still a helluva player and they still won Superbowls.

We see more into Owens' life because the media has probed more into his than just about any other professional athlete. They found something that generated a little attention, turned it into a circus, and all of a sudden he's a worse human being than a guy like Maurice Clarett or Michael Irvin.

It stunk to me back then and it stinks to me now. If you don't like him, that's your deal. Just make sure you're an EOE and you can't stand another 75% of the league along with Owens.

[PHS Wildcats]

Well he got his attention, great job T.O.:clap:

Do you honestly think that is he had taken 30-35 pain pills he would be able to speak clearly today? Even if he had his stomach pumped the affects would last for at least two days..He would have been sluggish and would have looked like he was sick

Tim Cowlishaw, from the Dallas morning news, brought up 2 interesting questions.

T.O. broke his hand 10 days ago and was taking the pain killers with his supplements during that period of time. Why is he just now having an reaction to it.

Plus he stays less than one minute from Balor hospital where he was sent. Why didn't she just take him there herself, He wasn't out and could've walk to the care. I took paramedics longer to get to the home, than it would to have driven him herself.

Don't jump down my throat, he brought this up.

Tim Cowlishaw, from the Dallas morning news, brought up 2 interesting questions.

T.O. broke his hand 10 days ago and was taking the pain killers with his supplements during that period of time. Why is he just now having an reaction to it.

Plus he stays less than one minute from Balor hospital where he was sent. Why didn't she just take him there herself, He wasn't out and could've walk to the care. I took paramedics longer to get to the home, than it would to have driven him herself.

Don't jump down my throat, he brought this up.

Even Parcells said he was aware of a reaction to pills last week. What makes anyone so sure the meds weren't changed as a result and he had another reaction? Who knows? Always best to wait until ALL the facts are known before passing judgement, but then I'm a realist, and not a gossip.

[Bandera YaYa]

The reality here is that we may never know the real truth ....case of he said, he said. ?? :thinking:

[Txbroadcaster]

Cowlishaw's thoughts about him being a couple of minutes from hospital IMO does not matter. If I am with someone who is in anyway sick and not responsive I am calling ambulance. Him being in their care in an amublance might save his life compared to me taking them to the hospital

Also Dallas Police reports they DID find the other pills he said was in a drawer.

And if he in unresponsive, how is a little woman supposed to carry a NFL football player to a car?

Maybe so, but if this is the case, what point is there to all the suspicion, speculation and accusations? Why not wait until something more official is forthcoming? If there are no charges, then one must assume there is no provable crime.

I agree....hence my comment:

Keyshawn sucks!!! He is too old and slow and just like "West Virginia" overrated!!! When was the last time you saw someone wearing a Keyshawn Johnson Jersey??? When was the last time he made the pro bowl???

Well if he actually did this on purpose, then he needs help, not criticism. Personally, I have more of a problem with the people who are all over him about an ATTEMPTED SUICIDE than I do with Owens.

I admit I was soapboxing about him all day.....and I should have been more sensitive....I know it was a sensitive subject. But I still don't think him and his publicist were telling it absolutely straight....BUT again, I'm glad he's ok........ :(

[Ranger Mom]

All I know is, a friend of my ex-husbands attemtped suicide several times (was successful the last time:( ), each time, he was held for observation (and counseling) for at LEAST 48 hours.

If the doctors really thought T.O. had tried to commit suicide, they would not have let him go back home.
