Overview

  • Owens hauled in a 22-yard pass from quarterback Carter Bradley with 3:12 left, his only catch and the decisive score in the 30-23 victory over the Chargers.
  • San Francisco closed its exhibition slate with a win to finish the preseason 2-1.
  • Owens entered the NFL in 2024 as an undrafted signee, was released after a small right-hand fracture, and later returned on a futures deal and the practice squad.
  • He is currently listed as a fourth-string receiver, and despite injuries in the position group, his status for the 53-man roster remains uncertain.
  • Before the game, Terrell Owens sent his son a video of his own first NFL touchdown, according to reporter Vic Tafur, underscoring the family’s connection to the franchise.
