Owens Misses Second Practice

Wide receiver Terrell Owens rested his sore left hamstring again Friday morning after missing his first practice of training camp Thursday.

Dressed in sweats and a baseball cap, Owens watched while the Dallas Cowboys practiced for two hours on a soggy River Ridge Complex field.

Cowboys head coach Bill Parcells said he didn't know when Owens would return to practice, but he wasn't concerned about his star receiver's hamstring. And Owens said Thursday he and the team are simply being cautious.

Owens Not Practicing

Terrell Owens did not practice with the Dallas Cowboys because of a sore left hamstring. Wearing a hooded sweat shirt, shorts and a wrap on his left thigh, Owens spent most of his time slowly riding an exercise bicycle. He stopped pedaling to do a situp drill and another with a medicine ball. In between, he spent several minutes talking to owner Jerry Jones.

The injury doesn't seem to be serious. Owens smiled often and his conversation with Jones seemed lighthearted. At one point, Jones pointed to his own hamstring. They shook hands and Jones tapped a punch on Owens' shoulder as they parted.

Cowboys Sign Williams

The Dallas Cowboys signed Pro Bowl safety Roy Williams to a four-year contract extension, securing the hard-hitting run-stopper through the 2010 season. Financial terms weren't immediately available.

"I am going to be a Cowboy for life," said Williams, Dallas' first-round pick in 2002. "I'm staying here." Williams, who turns 26 this month, had 81 tackles, three interceptions, 2 1/2 sacks and a touchdown last season.
