T.O. Hospitalized In Dallas For Unknown Treatment

(CBS 11 News) DALLAS CBS 11 News has learned that Dallas Cowboys wide receiver has been taken to Baylor Medical Center. It's said that the player is being treated for some unknown problem that required emergency room treatment.

Sources tell CBS 11 News that Owens was taken to Baylor Hospital by Dallas Fire Rescue and that emergency room doctors attempted to induce vomiting.

As of 11 p.m. Baylor Hospital officials denied that Owens was getting emergency room treatment, but CBS 11 Sports Reporter Gina Miller confirmed that Owens was indeed at the hospital. Dallas Fire Rescue would not comment on any call it made to Owens home.

Two weeks ago Owens broke his hand during a football game against the Washington taterskins. It is unclear if his treatment Tuesday night is in anyway related to that.

CBS 11 News and Sports crews are monitoring the situation and will continue to update information.

There's talk that it's mistaken identity and it's actually a local sherriff, Terrell Bolton(sp). Evidently the pain medication was making him sick earlier, so who knows? Have to wait until there's real confirmation from someone with the hospital or team, I guess.

Wow...interesting. Here's PFT's info...

SOMETHING'S UP WITH T.O.?

There are unsubstantiated Internet swirlings of a report from CBS-TV 11 in Dallas regarding the health of Terrell Owens.

This information is uncorroborated, but it appears on a least one message board and was e-mailed to us minutes ago.

Here's the quote:  "Just reported on CBS 11 news in Dallas that T.O. was taken to Baylor Medical Center in Dallas.  They said that doctors are trying to induce vomiting.  They also said a Dallas Police Public Relations officer was headed over there to take care of what they called a 'high profile' case.  They had no more details than that.  No link as of yet either."

Again, this is all uncorroborated right now.  We're checking it out.  There is nothing on the CBS 11 web site about it, and we are searching elsewhere for more information.  Here's the link to the message board.

Owens had surgery last week to repair a broken finger.  His recovery has been progressing normally.

T.O. UPDATE

More information is coming out regarding the status of Cowboys receiver Terrell Owens.  ESPN is now airing basic information regarding a report out of Texas that Owens has been hospitalized for undisclosed reasons, and there's an AP story regarding the situation.

Meanwhile, CBS-TV 11 in Dallas has a story on its site regarding the situation.

Here's another link on the matter.  Owens might have had an adverse reaction to medication that he is taking following last week's surgery.

I wonder if Drew will get to do mouth to mouth on him. Like when he "saved" that kids life.
