Sounds like an attempt to bring back and sell some tickets to conservative fans in the area. He’ll see some downs in the pre-season, and if he isn’t cut, will ride the bench the whole season.
Even going back 30 years, I never liked it when sports teams tried to sell tickets; it just led to a bunch of people cheering and supporting their team and that ruins the outdoor solitude for many.
Setting that aside, I hope Tim Tebow does well but I am reluctant to see him back on an NFL controlled team.
Tebow is strong mentally, spiritually, and physically but even at that, I can't see him being able to pull 32 team owners, players, advertisers, and the NFL front office out of the sewer single-handedly.
In terms of quaintness, I can remember Tebow-haters back in 2013-2015 saying things like “the NFL just cares about merit on the field, the NFL isn't the least bit interested in blacklisting conservatives or promoting a left wing world view.”
I still chuckle when I think of how many NFL fan(atics) actually bought into that line.
I think he might end up on the coaching staff eventually.
