Terrell Owens is a Pro Football Hall of Famer

Kaden Smith Jersey , and now he’ll enter the Hall of Fame of the first team he played for as well.The 49ers announced today that they’ve chosen Owens as the next member of their team’s Hall of Fame.“Over the course of eight seasons, the 49ers Faithful were fortunate to have front row seats to watch Terrell Owens develop into one of the most prolific wide receivers in the history of the NFL,” 49ers owner Jed York said in a statement. “Not only was Terrell one of the most physically gifted athletes to ever play the game, but he was also one of the most competitive. We are so very proud and honored to induct Terrell into the Edward J. DeBartolo Sr. San Francisco 49ers Hall of Fame, where he will take his place among the all-time greats in our team’s history.”Owens refused to participate in his own enshrinement in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, but he released a statement indicating that he’ll gladly accept this honor from the 49ers.“I am so humbled to be mentioned with the likes and greats of Joe Montana, Steve Young, Jerry Rice and many others that have represented the San Francisco 49ers organization,” said Owens. “I wouldn’t be who I am and have accomplished what I did, number one, without God and without the push of my teammates and coaches, especially Coach Larry Kirksey and Coach George Stewart.”Owens played his first eight seasons with the 49ers and ranks second only to Rice in franchise history in receptions (592), receiving yards (8 Kaden Smith San Francisco 49ers Jersey ,572) and receiving touchdowns (81). The 2018 NFL trade deadline is two days away, and the teams are busy calling the San Francisco 49ers. Sunday morning, Adam Schefter reported wide receiver Pierre Gar莽on has drawn trade interest from several teams. Sunday afternoon, head coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed the team has received calls about Gar莽on and other players.Shanahan said that he looks forward to Gar莽on getting healthy and being available this Thursday against the Oakland Raiders. However, he also said the next two days could impact the roster. Nothing is happening yet, but the team is pursuing all avenues.The 49ers now sit at 1-7 after another heart-breaking loss and it’s time to make some decisions. The playoffs were off the radar once Jimmy Garoppolo got hurt, and so there will be no short-term solutions. Pierre Gar莽on is a veteran leader, but the team might decide it’s time to move on and give the young guys even more looks. Kendrick Bourne stepped up in his absence, catching seven passes for 71 yards. Marquise Goodwin added a 55-yard touchdown catch and Trent Taylor had a seven-yard reception.Gar莽on has struggled with health and effectiveness. The 49ers downgraded him from doubtful to out on Saturday. That kind of thing happens from time-to-time, but given the upcoming trade deadline, they might have just wanted to shut him down to get this sorted out. We’ll find out in the next 48 hours what’s up.
