He got two receptions in the preseason opener

He recently suffered a toe injury, which will sideline him for a few days.

And he has a new reality show.

Welcome to Buffalo, T.O. Enjoy the ride fans, wherever it may lead.

Terrell Owens joins the Bills as this upcoming season should, as usual, provide the inventive touchdown celebrations, dropped receptions, colorful post-game news conferences and expect a sideline tirade or two, before it's all said and done. Given his comments throughout his career regarding his former quarterbacks (questioning Jeff Garcia's sexual orientation and calling out Donovan McNabb's toughness in the Super Bowl), I wouldn't be surprised if T.O. says that Trent Edward's facial hair is a distraction.

It's hard to be predictable with Owens, but let's be realistic Bills fans. Hope for the game-breaking ability he sporadically shows, as opposed to the constant headache he will inevitably become. Does anyone believe that he will celebrate a 70-yard bomb with Evans, Reed or Parrish without pouting that he should have been on the receiving end? I sure don't. Thrown in a tough 1st three games on the road at New England, then back-to-back home games against Tampa Bay and New Orleans without starting running back Marshawn Lynch (suspended) and the Bills are possibly looking at an uphill climb from the beginning. Rhodes and Jackson will platoon in Lynch's absence.

As for the AFC East, Tom Brady and the hoodie are back for the Pats, the Jets have a revamped D of former Ravens (including coach Rex Ryan) and the Dolphins are coming off a division title. Although they are talented, they are too inconsistent to hang with the elite. 8-8 is a reach, but attainable for the Bills. Perhaps week 17 home against Indy will either solidify their wild card status, or seal their fate. Who knows.

What I do know is that Terrell Owens is a diva that loves the spotlight and hates everything else. But, it will be entertaining to watch it all unfold.

Only time will tell.
