Terrell Owens was involved in a three-team trade in Fan Controlled Football on Tuesday, and if the deal goes through, he could move from the Zappers to the Knights.
The Zappers would trade Owens and pick numbers 1 and 16 this week from the Knights and acquire quarterback Jason Stewart and numbers 5 and 12 this week from the Beasts and receiver Isiah King from the Knights. The Knights would also send quarterback Dentarrius Yon to the Beasts and receive receiver Jacoby Herring.

Fan Controlled Football noted that even if the owners or each of the three teams involved in the trade agree to it, the fans will have the final decision. The league said each team will have one vote to accept the deal. If “a super-majority of 70% of fans rejects it,” the trade will fail.
“As a league, we support this trade because we believe it will help maintain the competitive balance and that every team – and the players involved – all benefit from these moves… Also, how good is it? great that our first trade was a 3 team deal with TO, a pair of QBs and a pick trade!?!” the league said.

“For all potential future trades this regular season, we will follow a similar veto voting format – but when it comes time for the playoffs, all potential moves will be limited to votes from only those in the top 10 of the standings. every team for this season…. It may be fan-controlled football, but just like players and teams on the pitch, not all fans are created equal – so make your call and make sure you lock in one of these top spots for your team!”
If it materializes, it would be the first completed trade in CWF history.
Owens has eight catches for 102 yards and two touchdowns this season. King has a catch for 19 yards. Herring had eight catches for 122 yards and four touchdowns.
