Terrell Owens Makes Decision on Teammate’s Hall of Fame Invitation

Despite having a fractured relationship with the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Terrell Owens has decided to look past the friction to support close friend and former 49ers teammate Bryant Young.

Owens, who famously boycotted his own induction four years ago, said recently he plans to be in attendance for Young’s induction in August. The four-time Pro Bowler and franchise sacks leader spent eight of his 14 seasons in San Francisco with Owens after the receiver arrived as a third-round pick in 1996.

While attending a ceremony on June 1 honoring Young at the Dwight Clark Legacy Series, Owens credited the former defensive tackle as the reason why he decided to attend the festivities in Canton in spite of the ongoing issues.
