Terrell Owens, WR, Buffalo BillsNews | Statistics | Utilization | Depth Chart Cowboys | Owens says he was a scapegoat Clarence E. Hill Jr., of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, reports former Dallas Cowboys WR Terrell Owens, currently with the Buffalo Bills, said he became a scapegoat for Cowboys QB Tony Romo's lack of leadership. Owens said, "He was the quarterback of the team. I think everybody realized that. It was upon him to adopt that leadership role and carry that out. Obviously, they saw that didn't happen. So, for whatever reason, I'll be the scapegoat. I'm not here. Now, it's his team. I wish him well." Owens also said he has not talked to owner Jerry Jones since he was released from the Cowboys in March. Cowboys | S. Jones discusses Owens' release Michael Silver, of Yahoo! Sports, reports Dallas Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said the reason the team released WR Terrell Owens was because as long as he was on the team, QB Tony Romo would not be an influential leader. "A lot of our players thought the world of Terrell – they still do. They loved the way he prepared and how hard he played, and everybody respected his skills and what he'd done in the league. And with him here, I think he was always going to carry that kind of weight," Jones said.

"We're all at risk every offseason, depending upon everything. You always want to go out there and try to have all the guys you play with every year. That just doesn't happen. We have to go with the guys we have here now, go forward and keep improving."
