His 10 starts came last season at right guard and right tackle after the line was hit with injuries throughout the season.

Owens, signed from Detroit as a free agent, originally was a fifth-round draft pick (138th overall) by the Lions in the 2002 NFL Draft. He has also played for Chicago, Cleveland and New Orleans. Primarily used as a blocking tight end during his career, he has played in 60 games with 16 starts, recording 19 catches for 162 yards with one touchdown.
