Celebrations, catches and controversy: TO's HOF legacy

Editor's note: This is part of a weeklong look at the Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2018, focusing on plays, moments or defining characteristics of the inductees.

Even as he prepares to enter the Pro Football Hall of Fame, former wide receiver Terrell Owens has managed to create controversy.

Upset that the doors to Canton, Ohio, didn't open for him immediately, Owens plans to take the unique step of not attending the Hall of Fame ceremonies. Instead, Owens announced he will be celebrating with family, friends, former teammates and fans at the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga, his alma mater, on induction day.
