"I'm not washed up," he said. "Once you know how to ride a bike, you know, you don't forget how to ride that bike.

"With that conversation that I had, they asked me to keep myself in shape – anything can happen. And, so, that's what I'm doing," he said.

Owens said he's been working out on the track and is clocking in at some speedy times.

"I've been on the track, and, honestly, I just ran probably like a week ago. I was clocked at like a 4.4. Faster than I probably ever have in probably in a while," he said.

The 47-year-old was enshrined into the Hall of Fame in 2018. He notably skipped the ceremony and chose to host his own celebration at his alma mater – Tennessee-Chattanooga – instead of celebrating in Canton.
