Terrell Owens Heartbroken Over Former Teammate Marion Barber’s Death

Former NFL wide receiver Terrell Owens wrote a message on Instagram for his former teammate Marion Barber, who was found dead in his Frisco, Texas, apartment by police Wednesday.

“Man I am so heart broken,” Owens said in an Instagram post. “Damn MB. Been holding it in since I got the news earlier today. Man, #24!! This hurts.”

The two were teammates in Dallas when Owens played there from 2006 to ’08. Barber’s cause of death has not been announced. He was 38 years old.

Owens joined former Cowboys coach Bill Parcells as one of the many coaches and players to pay tribute to the late tailback.
