Owens played for the Detroit Lions and Atlanta Falcons between 1990 and 1999 and amassed 33 career sacks.
In his last season with the Lions, he started at defensive tackle. He was a solid starter, even though he probably didn't even weigh 290 pounds. He got hurt in week 9 and was lost for the season. Unfortunately for Owens, this injury at his age ended his career.
Owens played college football at the University of Southern California where he was All-Pac-10 in 1989.
Owens is married to his wife Susie and has four children; Lainey, Mackenzie, Connor, and Haley. He is also part owner of The Forum Athletic Club in Johns Creek, Georgia. He currently serves as the defensive coordinator for the Northview High School football team.
