NFL great Terrell Owens said he won’t attend his induction ceremony to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in August, but didn’t explain why. Owens said in a statement posted Thursday on Twitter that he is “incredibly appreciative of this opportunity,” but “made the decision to publicly decline my invitation to attend the induction ceremony” in Canton, Ohio. Owens, a wide receiver who played in the NFL from 1996 to 2012, said he reached the decision a few months ago after a visit to the Hall of Fame. “I came to the realization that I wish to celebrate what will be one of the most memorable days of my life, elsewhere,” he said of the Aug. 4 Hall of Fame ceremony.
