Eagles Suspend Terrell Owens

"The Philadelphia Eagles today announced wide receiver Terrell Owens has been suspended by the team for conduct detrimental to the team. The team will have no further comment on the matter at this time."

Owens, who has also been battling a severely sprained ankle, will probably have missed Sunday night's game against Washington anyway and but the suspension has no time limit as yet.

Owens made comments about how the organization "lacked class" after not recognizing the fact that he caught his hundredth career touchdown pass - which he did on October 23 against the Chargers. Owens also stated that the team's claims about forgetting about the milestone touchdown was a "blatant lie" and had insulted him.

The Eagles do not typically honor individual achievements on the scoreboard or stop the game to celebrate an accomplishment.
