Eagles Want Owens Bonus Back

ESPN - For the second time in five months, the Philadelphia Eagles have requested that exiled wide receiver Terrell Owens repay part of the signing bonus that he received when the club signed him to a seven-year, $49 million contract in 2004.

And this time, team sources said, the Eagles plan to collect.

Those sources confirmed that the Eagles last week apprised Owens in writing of their intent to recover $1.725 million of his original $2.3 million signing bonus. Team officials have forwarded the pertinent paperwork to the league alerting NFL officials of their intentions. And there is a chance that the club will garnish Owens' wages for the final five games of the season, or $191,176 per week, as part of the repayment. [READ]
