The Jets' 2nd round selection in the 1995 draft, O'Owyer was
ready to take over the starting RG spot midway through last
season when he was hampered with a sprained knee that
ended his season ...played in 12 games (2 starts), seeing the
majority of his time in a backup role and on special teams ...an
avid weight lifter, he was a fixture in the Jets' weight room
this past off-season.
