"WR Terrell Owens is still a free agent without a team, but said earlier this week he's ahead of schedule in his rehab from knee surgery, and hopes to be playing at some point this season.

Owens told espn.com that doctors told him the rehabilitation timetable for surgery to repair a torn ACL was six to eight months and up to a year.

"Obviously they gave someone of my caliber a four- to six-month window. Four months is very ambitious, and that's where I'm at now: four months and four or five days out from surgery," Owens said following a workout earlier this week."
