Seattle Seahawks showed the door for Terrell Owens "T.O."

On his Twitter profile on Sunday T.O. published a post, saying he is no longer a Seahawk and that he thanks the team for the opportunity, adding that his faith is intact and that he is blessed beyond beleif.
Owens, who hasn't played in the NFL since 2010 due to last year's knee surgery, signed a one-year contract with Seattle Seahawks on August 6, after team coaches were impressed with the workout he showed after 18-month break.

Seattle gave the veteran a chance to find his old top form, but things didn't went so good for T.O. Аfter a disappointing first preseason match against Denver Broncos in which he didn't complete any of the five passes towards him, he had another pale game against Kansas City on Friday night.

It was a clear sign for Seattle that Owens must join his (now former) teammates Alex Barron and Deuce Lutui, who were also cut of the team on Sunday. 

In his NFL career, Terrell Owens played for San Francisco 49ers (1996 - 2003), Philadelphia Eagles (2004 - 2005), Dallas Cowboys (2006 - 2008), Buffalo Bills (2009), Cincinnati Bengals (2010) and Seattle Seahawks (2012), with phenomenal 1,078 receptions for 15,934 yards and 153 touchdowns.

With regular season two weeks away from it's start, would this be the end of T.O.'s NFL career?
