Tim Tebow’s teammates respect him, as do a lot of former players who are Christians (Deion Sanders and Michael Irvin, in particular).
I don’t know about Irvin. He made a lot of fun of Tebow on the NFL network yesterday. It was sickening. The man must be angry at G-d
I watched NFL Network yesterday and saw Irvin give Tebow nothing but respect, including praising him for being an outspoken Christian.
Not sure what you saw, but it was obvious to me that Irvin admires and believes in Tebow.
