He doesn't have a future in the NFL as a QB. His only shot is to bulk up even more than he did last offseason, and be a FB or a TE.

He needs to realize this.

I still think Tebow has value in the NFL just not as a starting QB. I think he would be an absolute force in Goaline packages 5 yards and in. He is a tough runner, extremely difficult tontackle, and has a knack for scoring.

He was a really good baseball player in HS. Not sure what his prospects were as a pro baseball player though.

Hell no Tim Tebow will be a starting QB in the NFL in the next 2 years.

Isnt that exactly what he did this year? Didnt work out too well.

Hes too polarizing to have on your bench and too shitty to start

If someone is going to pay you to sit back up in the NFL then you ride that wave. Even if it's just to sell jerseys for the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Tebow was an outstanding baseball player in high school. There's also the story about him taking batting practice a couple years ago and hitting 12 homeruns in 15 pitches. I honestly believe he could have been an outstanding baseball player if he had stuck with it.

Play his career as a backup or give the Canadian Football League a whirl.

Is the league expanding by 40 teams next season?

I agree. He should milk that. I was just saying he will never play

people wanted him to play bc Mark Suckchez was starting... put him behind a legit QB and he'll be a backup without the fuss and Skip Bayless on him

Worst case senario, he can be a very solid special teams player. Teams will still give him a shot. just maybe not exclusively at QB.

career back-up in the NFL is still very nice money.

No. The guy can win. At the end of the day, that is all that matters.

Maybe the Jacksonville GM is just trying to drive the price down?

Has there ever been a quarterback start 3/4 of a season, guide his team to a division title, a playoff win, and then never be allowed to play again?
