The T.O. Show could be heading to the Big Apple, as the New York Jets have contacted free agent wide receiver Terrell Owens, according to ESPN.

Owens' agent Drew Rosenhaus was reportedly called by the Jets to discuss the idea of bringing Owens on board alongside fellow big-name and big-ego wide receivers Braylon Edwards and Santonio Holmes.

Despite the rumor, the Bengals still appear to be front-runners to sign Owens, while the Jets stand a "20 percent chance" of landing the former Bills, Cowboys, Eagles and 49ers star, according to a league source. The Bengals are offering an incentive-laden contract and they have told the six-time Pro Bowler that he has until Wednesday to agree to a deal.

The Jets have already added big-time names and potential Hall of Famers in LaDainian Tomlinson and Jason Taylor this offseason.
