T.O. calls Bradford 'a coward' for requesting trade

Terrell Owens was never shy about sharing his opinion on a quarterback during his days in the NFL and since he's retired, he's still willing to offer his take.

TMZ found Owens on the streets of Los Angeles and asked him about the current quarterback situation concerning one of his former teams, the Philadelphia Eagles.

T.O. was caught off guard a bit by the question asking "What starting job?", "Carson who?" and initially referring to Sam Bradford as "Samford" before taking a minute to develop a response.

"Well I think it's really Sam Bradford's job to lose considering he's been there, but you got a number one pick in Carson Wentz, so obviously he's going to be trying to stake his claim as the guy who can lead the Eagles to where they need to be," said Owens.

"I think it was not a great move for Sam to want to request a trade being that they were getting a number one pick. If it were me, that's kind of a sign of a coward, to be honest ... With that request it just seems like somebody who isn't comfortable in his own skin and what he can do."

Owens made some questionable career moves himself, but you can't question that the man is comfortable in his own skin.
