Ex-Bengal Terrell Owens works out for Saskatchewan Roughriders coach Chris Jones

One day, former Cincinnati Bengals receiver Terrell Owens was celebrating his Pro Football Hall of Fame enshrinement - not in Canton, but at his alma mater of Tennessee-Chattanooga.

The next, he was working out for Saskatchewan Roughriders head coach Chris Jones.

Owens' agent said in July that the 44-year-old receiver who last played in an NFL game for the Bengals in 2010 is "absolutely 100 percent" serious about playing in the Canadian Football League. A signing window that expired gave the Edmonton Eskimos until July 24 to negotiate a deal with Owens or release his rights.
