Wide receiver Terrell Owens has been told by the Dallas Cowboys that the NFL team will release him.

Several of Owens' Dallas teammates said they received text messages from Owens saying he was informed Wednesday that he would be released, an article on the Cowboys' Web site stated. However, team officials haven't confirmed the move.

Owens joined the Cowboys in 2006 and has had three consecutive 1,000-yard receiving seasons, including in 2008 when he caught 69 passes for 1,052 yards and 10 touchdowns. He had a total of 38 touchdown receptions in his time with the Cowboys. He set a franchise record with 15 touchdown receptions in 2007.

But he was also seen often as an on-the-field distraction and negative influence in the locker room.

Dallas signed Owens to a four-year, $34 million, including a $12.9 million signing bonus, contract extension last season.

Owens, 35, is a 13-year NFL veteran, having played for San Francisco and Philadelphia before joining Dallas. He has 951 catches for 14,122 yards and 139 touchdowns in his career.

Reggie Bush had surgery on his left knee and it's unclear when the New Orleans Saints running back will be back with the team.

Bush, injured on a punt return in the first half of Sunday's 30-7 loss to the Carolina Panthers, had the operation Monday in Birmingham, Ala., Saints spokesman Greg Bensel said Tuesday in an e-mail to The Associated Press. He gave no other details.

Instead of accompanying his teammates on the trip to London to face the San Diego Chargers on Sunday at Wembley Stadium, Bush instead visited Dr. James Andrews.
"He has been a big part of what we have been able to do offensively and it's an injury that we have to deal with," Saints coach Sean Payton said shortly after the team arrived Monday. "Hopefully on a short-term basis rather than a long-term basis, and it sounds like that's the case."

Bush sustained cartilage damage, and some athletes have missed several months because of surgery to repair similar injuries.
"From a timing standpoint, it falls with this game and then a bye weekend, so there is a little bit of time there for him as it pertains to his recovery," Payton said. "We'll have to make some adjustments offensively."

Aaron Stecker or Pierre Thomas will be called on to play alongside Deuce McAllister in the backfield.
The Saints played the final four games of last season without Bush due to a knee injury, and they went 2-2.
"Hopefully we won't skip a beat," Saints quarterback Drew Brees said. "Obviously we will miss Reggie, just like we will miss any guy who is that productive for us offensively."
Bush entered the game against Carolina with an NFL-best 41 receptions.
The 2005 Heisman Trophy winner from Southern California missed practice early last week with swelling in his left knee. He had 55 yards on nine carries, caught one pass for 5 yards, and had a 3.5 average on three punt returns against Carolina.

The Rays defeated the Red Sox in Game 7 of the ALCS, 3-1, on Sunday night to advance to their first-ever World Series. Matt Garza started for Tampa Bay, and pitched seven strong innings of one-run baseball. He struck out nine, walked three, and gave up just two hits.

Garza was named the 2008 ALCS MVP. After Alex Cora reached in the eighth inning on an error by shortstop Jason Bartlett to start the inning, Tampa manager Joe Maddon used Dan Wheeler, J.P. Howell, Chad Bradford, and David Price to get out of the inning unscathed. Price then remained on the mound in the top of ninth to preserve the win for the Rays, sending them to their first World Series in a season of firsts for Tampa Bay.

Dustin Pedroia put Boston on the board in the first inning with a solo shot off Garza, and Jon Lester was in complete control through the game's first three innings. The Rays rallied in the fourth, though, as Evan Longoria hit an RBI double to tie the game at 1-1. Rocco Baldelli then hit an RBI single in the fifth to give the Rays a 2-1 lead. Lester pitched seven innings, struck out eight, and walked none. However, he wasn't able to get out of the game before Willy Aybar hit a solo home run in the seventh, pushing Tampa Bay's lead to 3-1 heading into the eighth inning. Boston loaded the bases in the top of the eighth, but a combination of five pitchers retired the Sox without a single run coming across the plate. After Hideki Okajima retired the Rays in order, Price trotted back out onto the mound for Tampa Bay with the Sox down to their last three outs. Price walked Jason Bay on eight pitches but struck out Mark Kotsay and Jason Varitek to move the Rays to within one out of the World Series. Jed Lowrie came to the plate, pinch-hitting for Cora, and grounded out to second to end Boston's season. The Rays will host the Phillies on Wednesday in Game 1 of the World

About an hour before his team ralphs on itself, loses its third game in four weeks and goes into full crisis mode, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is walking on the Edward Jones Dome field with his two plainclothes security guards and the team public relations director. He stops to tell a story.

"I asked a man one time who had 300 restaurants, 'How do you find all those cooks? How can you find people who can cook 24 hours a day?'" says Jones, whose left jacket lapel features a Salvation Army pin and a diamond-studded star. "He said, 'You got to remember one thing: If it's supposed to be cold, make it ice cold. If it's supposed to be warm, burn your mouth. You can cover up a lot of things with intensity.'"
Jones pauses. "I admit there's some frailties around here, but we try to make up for it with heat, with heat."

Right now, the Cowboys are generating all the heat of a rain-soaked book of matches. If you're wondering if Jones' team is in serious trouble, they are. Any more frail and they'd break into tears.
The Cowboys could miss the playoffs. Think about that for a moment. A team built for a Super Bowl is on the brink of self-destruction, of self-implosion. And when you dust the crime scene for fingerprints, Jones' are on every piece of Cowboys furniture.
