Owens Served Lawsuit During Recent Public Appearance
Owens did not appear to be phased by the lawsuit. He barely glanced at the papers before setting them down on a nearby table and going on as if nothing happened.
"Terrell Owens, you've been served," the attorney captioned his social media post.
Owens still appeared to be unbothered after Paltzik posted the video. He also took to social media to issue a response.
"Hey Edward. Not worried. God is good,"
The clip went viral, which led to an outpouring of reactions on social media.
"I guess he knows where the money from his new book is going," one user wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.
"TERRELL OWENS getting served on camera is wild. The man thought it was a normal day, and the lawyer had a whole different play call," a second user remarked.
"To pay someone to film this is extremely weak and a waste of resources just for attention," a third user chimed in.
Football Star Sued Over Comments About Nolan Wells' Death
Nothing has been confirmed yet. But the lawsuit appears to be related to the comments that Owens made about the death of Nolan Wells earlier this year. Wells, an 18-year-old African-American student from Mississippi, body was found off the coast of Mississippi following a Fourth of July weekend boat trip that he had taken with three of his friends.
On September 26th, Owens reposted an Instagram reel from Trent Out Loud. The reel called for the arrests of Warren Hudson, Jax Pitalo, and Morgan Seymour. After it was revealed that the three boys allegedly deleted things off of the late teen's cellphone. In addition to reposting the reel, Owens also echoed the same sentiment of the video.
"ARREST THEM IMMEDIATELY!! LIKE YESTERDAY!!" the former Cowboys star wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.
After weeks of public outcry, the jury declined to file criminal charges against the three teens. It was determined that Wells' manner of death was "consistent with a drowning."
So in response to the post, Hudson, Pitalo, and Seymour brought a defamation lawsuit against the former NFL standout.
