Jags Sign Tebow
Jaguars signed TE Tim Tebow to a one-year contract.
The deal isn't 'official' just yet but will be in the next week or so. Tebow, 33, hasn't played in a regular-season game in nine years and will be attempting to change positions once he does make it to camp. It's another wacky (albeit fun) move that brings Meyer's tenure into question after the organization also added a first-round running back and drafted multiple injured players. There is no competition among Jacksonville's tight ends if Tebow does somehow sneak onto the 53-man roster. https://www.nbcsports.com/edge/footb...nville-jaguars |

To date, I've seen one small snippet on NFL.com, re-posted from the Jags website, and a back-page story on ESPN. This is a non-story and it's absolutely hilarious to see the reactions. |

There's absolutely NOTHING about Tim Tebow that is a "goodie two shoes" or teacher's pet. Nothing. |

Of course that was the discussion THEN. It's not the discussion now and you can't pretend otherwise. |

I know from second hand that he wasn't a leader in the locker room in Denver and didn't earn much respect there. It'll be interesting to see how he fares in Jacksonville.

I'm guessing it's hard to be a leader in an NFL locker room when you're a QB who throws the ball like Helen Keller in the middle of an orgasm.

Every friggin athlete loves Jesus. Some more than others. I refuse to believe Tebow was the one Jesus-loving athlete that people decided to be annoyed by. Reggie White. Drew Brees. Kurt Warner. All high-profile NFL guys who were extremely vocal about their faith. What's the difference between them and Tebow? Oh yeah. Talent. They're all HOFers or future HOFers. Nobody ever had to explain to people that Reggie White was great when it was plain that he sucked... and that's because Reggie White was FAR from a sucky player. Again, it was never his religion. It was people shoving him down our throats saying, "Watch this, he's great!" Maybe those people thought he'd be great because they shared his faith. But as for the anti-Tebow crowd, most of them didn't give a shit. If you think I'm misremembering events, you're welcome to explain why he's the Christian athlete that everybody hates because of his faith. |

If I remember correctly. Tebow got jettisoned from the league because he refused to switch positions.
Kaep had offers from a couple teams to qb, backup. But refused because of money and not starting. He also refused to switch positions. I don't see why people keep calling it unfair. Kaep could get on a team if he became a team player. It seems like Tebow swallowed his pride. Hell he will probably be cut before regular season. |

Kaep... didn't he supposedly receive an offer for $7M a year to compete (like @ PHI or something, hell I think DEN made him an offer) and he said no because was a starter? Something like that... he made his play, stood his ground... shit happens. *** edit*** https://bleacherreport.com/articles/...20contract.%22 $7M over 2 seasons ... offered by Denver This link reads that is was $7M per season... https://www.nbcsports.com/bayarea/49...-pay-cut-offer |

If Tebow had signed to play QB then the Kaep people would have something because as awful as Kaep is as a QB, he's still a better one than Tebow. Tebow signed as a TE so it's hard to compare this to Kaep. It's apples and oranges.

I hope Tebow does well. I think he will help the teams with goal line runs and reverses. He can also be a decoy. Prove the doubters wrong Tebow. It's what he's good at.
I remember the NFL highlights vs the Chiefs where Tebow completed 2 passes. Deion Sanders says "I was 2-7....in baseball". Tebow still won the game. That's got to be record. |
