Tim Tebow’s work with throwing coach Tom House finally got him a job — this time with the Eagles.
Based off of how Tebow looked two summers ago with the Patriots, and recently working with House, Eagles brass felt they’d seen more than enough improvement to sign him.
We had exposure to him live when he was with New England, when they practiced here,” Eagles vice president of player personnel Ed Marynowitz said Thursday. “When we worked him out, we saw a great deal of improvement with him.”
The Eagles signed Tebow on Monday — but won’t allow it to become a circus until May at the earliest.
“We’ve got 68 players that are on our roster right now,” Marynowitz said. “Tim’s one of 68. He’ll have an opportunity to compete for a roster spot here. His role will be determined by his performance. We’re excited that he’s a member of the organization, and we’re looking forward to him competing.”
