Terrell ?T.O.? Owens could soon be gracing the covers of some of your favorite magazines… as a male model!

I ran into the former NFL great a few weeks ago during the 2013 Grammy Gifting Suite and couldn’t help but notice how handsome he is “in real life.”

Trust… at 6’4 220 lbs, Owens is a “tall glass of water” as Krazy Kenya Moore would say!

[Sidebar: Coincidentally, T.O. was one of Moore’s many “conquests’ back in the day… click HERE to read more about that.]

Most would argue that Owens departure from football wasn’t of his own free will.? The future NFL Hall of Famer took no mess on the football field and statistically, he ranks amongst the league?s top wide receivers of all time.

But it wasn’t his skills that kicked Terrell off the football field, it was his ego.

It’s been over two seasons since T.O. has played and no team will touch him, and while he’s faced his share of financial and emotional difficulties during that time, it seems that he’s finally found a way outta no way and will now be using his ‘God given gifts’ to earn a living.

Details below…

Terrell reportedly just signed a modeling contract with the Los Angeles branch of the global modeling agency, Next Management.

Diana Bianchini, Owens? publicist, even confirmed that the former pro-baller is now a certified male model, stating in an email to Larry Brown Sports:

?Terrell has had a modeling contract in the past,? Bianchini wrote in en email.

?Most can see why this would be a natural fit for him. NEXT approached him. He signed about a month ago and we are all very excited by this deal.?

Owens, 39, has not played in the NFL since 2010. The six-time Pro Bowler was released by the Seattle Seahawks last August after his attempt to make their roster in the preseason failed.

It’s no secret that T.O. has long been infatuated with his own appearance.? One of his popular catch phrases was, ?I love me some me!?

Do you think the ex-pro baller will make a mark in the modeling industry?
