The drama started back in 2019 when the former San Francisco 49ers star made an appearance on the First Take. “We were talking about the Kaepernick situation,” he stated before adding, “There was a text exchange between me and him”. Terrell mentioned that Smith read the message out on air without his consent.
It affected the public image of the 5-time First Team superstar and his reaction to it started the controversy. Reflecting on that period, he highlighted, “I had an attorney reach out to me”. Under the influence of that attorney, Owens sued Stephen A. for “copyright infringement”.
Talking about it on the podcast, the former wide receiver stated that he wanted to direct that towards ESPN. He “looked at ESPN,” for tarnishing his image over the years during his playing days. So, Stephen A. Smith only got caught up in the entire scenario. The conversation made us reminisce about the past.

What was the outcome the last time around?
Expectedly, Terrell’s attempts failed to resolve anything, as his endeavors only made things worse. In fact, during the occurrence of the incident, Smith’s co-host Max Kellerman’s name got involved. The trio shared disagreements in their interactions on the set, as the tension in between them escalated.
Stephen A. made a laughingstock out of Owens’ efforts on his show this week. “He wasn’t getting a damn dime which he was hoping to get,” the 55-year-old stated, making fun of the sports legend. After the latest set of words from Terrell, the situation looks far from reaching a conclusion.
