Donovan McNabb to Terrell Owens. That was the phrase we loved hearing during the Eagles’ 2004 season and have missed dearly for the last decade-plus. However, though we loved the pair together, the relationship between McNabb and Owens was heavily strained, causing the Eagles to eventually cut the wide receiver.
Since then, we’ve heard several versions of the story, both from McNabb and Owens, and others who were in the locker room at that time. Today on FS1’s Undisputed, Owens sat in and talked about the moment his relationship with McNabb soured.
