If they play Tebow as a Tight End or Running Back, any screen pass to him would be an "oh crap" moment for the defense.
Tim catching the ball in open field and building a full head of steam before initial contact would be something to see. Never seen a safety turn around and run for his life before, but there's a first time for everything.

When Tebow first got in campus, he was apparently working out so hard he out-lifted the senior OL, and S&C said they had to cut him off from lifting because he was like 260 and climbing rapidly.

If he wanted to be TE, I suspected he could in a few months.
Yep I remember that, he was going too far with it and was headed toward being musclebound with not enough flexibility to play QB. I think they started making him do yoga lol

Never heard of a player making a comeback at his age after not playing so long, especially at a different position. He's got as good a chance as anyone though -- on the one hand he has stayed in top physical condition by playing baseball, but on the other he's taken no contact all this time.

I hope they give him a shot, I have no doubt he could come in situationally and contribute. Like Toby Keith said, "I may not be as good as I once was, but I'm as good once as I ever was."

Will he still wear eyeblack even if he's not playing QB? If so, better start thinking of a verse.

2 COR 5:17?

The Christian Standard Bible is not mine but that's probably the best version because it has an exclamation point at the end lol

I feel like we’re friends, so I wanted you to hear this from me. If some less than flattering news surfaces over the next few posts regarding your sister, mother or wife, and how they spent their Sunday evening, I don’t want you to be alarmed.

I don't know if a 33 year old who has been out of football for this long and never played TE is going to be worth a darn in the NFL or not. But, I will never defame or blaspheme this all-time Gators great. If Urban wants him on the Jags, then dammit, go get 'em Timmy Legend!

BTW, I think this is how millionaires go to "Fantasy Camp". They play in the NFL for fun.

, but on the other he's taken no contact all this time.
This is probably a good thing. Gronk isnt old but he is pretty broken, knees shoulders etc. Jordan Reed too.

Obviously Im not comparing Teebs to a HOF TE, but tens years of wear takes you out of the game more than your skills eroding.

I did. When Herschel broke through line. I know he's a drag but him and the Tyler Rose were bigger than linebackers and faster than DBs. I would have tripped or so.ething.
