Tim Tebow Reacts to Officially Being Back in the NFL

The Tim Tebow show is back. The Jaguars announced this morning that Tim Tebow signed a contract with the team. He is expected to join the team today for the offseason program. It puts an end to speculation on the rumor that began on draft day about reuniting Tebow with Urban Meyer, his college coach.

Adam Schefter dropped the news:

Tim reacted to his signing.

“I want to thank the Jaguars for the opportunity to compete and earn the chance to be part of this team,” Tebow said in a news release. “I know it will be a challenge, but it is a challenge I embrace. I am dedicated to taking the direction of our coaching staff and learning from my teammates. I appreciate everyone’s support as I embark on this new journey.”

Tebow has no tight end experience at the college or NFL level.  According to Pro Football Focus, Tebow has run 16 routes in the NFL and been targeted twice. He doesn’t have a reception.

Hopefully he didn’t take someone else’s spot, but I’m pretty sure he did.
