Gronkowski just had back surgery.
TE job is WIDE OPEN if Tebow wants it.
YEP!!!!!
that was exactly what I was thinking, Tebow may get a jersey number in the 80s
I wish someone would pay me millions of dollars to not kill anyone, not fight dogs and not smoke dope.
I hope Tebow does find a place where he can play consistently, but is there any past evidence that he can play the tight end position? There's has been lots of talk, but I can't recall ever seeing him catch a pass.
This was my exact first thought when I heard the news about Tebow.
Gronk is done. They should trade his irresponsible arse to some team who will put up with him and then start setting Tebow up as the new tight end. With all his other skills he would make a formidable presence on the O line. Think of the possibilities....TE, slot back, decoy, motion man/extra blocker....and the list goes on.
It would be like when Tim Wakefield hit the Bigs. Until everyone got used to his Scroogie, he was un-hitable for a while.
That was my first thought as well.
You've got an extremely liberal defintion of "wide open". The Patriots currently have seven TEs on the roster. Even if Gronkowski is out for the entire year and Hernandez is in jail, Tebow has no shot as a tight end.
