Terrell Owens was taken to the emergency room after suffering an adverse reaction to painkillers taken for treatment of his fractured hand, a source close to Owens told ESPN. Doctors treating the Dallas Cowboys receiver were trying to induce vomiting, according to a television report.
Owens was brought by a fire rescue crew to Baylor Medical Center, Dallas-Fort Worth television station KTVT reported, citing sources the station did not identify.
A reporter for the station later said she saw Owens being wheeled down the hall.
Calls from the Associated Press to Owens's agent, his publicist, and the Cowboys were not immediately returned.
The hospital told the AP that it does not have a patient registered by Owens's name.
Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger a week ago Sunday night. The next day, a plate was screwed in, protecting the bone so it can heal without further damage.
 
He wasn't trying to commit suicide, he took another dose of medicine a couple hours too early and he had some adverse reactions because of this. When the paramedics showed up the bottle of pills was sitting on the table and someone there mentioned that it may have been a suicide attempt.

And this ladies and gents is proof that the only thing that travels faster than light is a rumor.
