The last time anyone saw Tim Tebow on a football field it was during the Patriots’ 2013 preseason, where he was eventually cut just before the regular season. Two full seasons have now passed since Tebow has been in the league, but that might change soon. According to Ben Volin of the Boston Globe, Tebow is considering attending the NFL veteran combine later this month.
He is currently a college football analyst for ESPN, the results of which have been positive. But he’s apparently trying to catch on with an NFL team again, and quarterbacks coach Tom House has been working with Tebow since he’s been out of the league in order to improve his throwing accuracy. Over that time, House has seen improvement in Tebow’s passing skills, saying “[Tim has gone] from being a little inaccurate and [not throwing] a whole lot of spirals, to throwing very accurate and real good at spinning the ball.”
If that sounds like something a coach of a high school quarterback would say rather than a coach of someone trying to make a living in the NFL, you’re not wrong. Then again, after considering some of his lowlights from his Broncos days, this is perhaps a good start.
The veteran combine will take place in Phoenix on March 22.
