Tim Tebow has a one-year deal with the Philadelphia Eagles.
We know NFL contracts aren’t guaranteed, but Tebow would have to be really awful — which he’s capable of — to lose a roster spot to Matt Barkley.
Tebow is now walking away from his job at ESPN as a college football analyst. ESPN appreciates his efforts, but also knows what they have. Tim Tebow is a legend in SEC country, and will have a job when he’s done in Philadelphia.
“We appreciate Tim’s contributions to the launch of SEC Network and wish him all the best as he pursues his NFL dream. Tim quickly established a tremendous rapport with everyone he worked with in front of and behind the camera. He has a tireless work ethic and a unique passion for football. Tim developed quickly into an excellent analyst. He has a home at ESPN when his playing career is done,” ESPN said in a statement from V.P. of Programming and Production John Wildhack.
