You heard it here first. Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, attending a league meeting in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., confirmed to NFL.com and the NFL Network on Thursday that wide receiver Terrell Owens has been released.

“Well, this was certainly a tough decision,” Jones said. “And I have all the feelings that I should have as far as Terrell as the great player he is and the impact he has made. I do appreciate what he has been for our team. But we certainly felt that this decision is the way we ought to go.”
