The Philadelphia Eagles have signed Tim Tebow to a one-year deal.
The 27-year-old quarterback joins three other signal callers, Sam Bradford, Matt Barkley, and Mark Sanchez, likely competing for three roster spots. The line behind center in Philadelphia may be long. But its not terribly accomplished, allowing Tebow a solid chance to make the team and, unlike his try in New England, to enjoy an opportunity on the field should injuries or ineptitude result from Bradford or Sanchez starting.
Bradford, the top man on the depth chart, endured injuries and struggled to live up to his potential in St. Louis before the Rams traded him for Nick Foles this offseason. Mark Sanchez enjoyed early success in New York before several terrible seasons, including one in which Tebow held the clipboard all season waiting in vain for his chance. Matt Barkley, like Sanchez a USC product, has played in just four NFL games during his two years in the league.

Agree with you post.....stay safe !
I just hoping Eagles fans be nice to him give him a chance before they start booing him
Good luck Tim! He is a proven winner both on and off the field.
Good for him. It will be interesting to see how much his game has improved.
It will also be interesting to speculate how long it will be before some special snowflake in the media starts whining the ‘homophobic unfairness’ of Tebow getting another shot, but not Michael Sam.
Sam was only cut because of Cis-gender, heteronormative privilege, you know. /do I *really* need a sarc tag here?
Two years of working on his throwing mechanics and Chip Kelly’s offense may be the ticket for Tebow. I hope so, just to see the “NFL experts” heads explode.
Sam wasn’t even good for Dancing with the stars be honest
I have feeling ESPN metrosexual put pressure on ABC keep him on Dancing with the stars as long as possible
I grew up outside Philly and have bled Iggles green for my entire life. I am thrilled!
My God hating lib Philly fan neighbor is going to pass a brick.
I’m going to go tell him right now!
Count on it.
I wish him the best.
Hope he gets n honest straight up shot. He got one in Denver and got some good exp, won a few games and got ducked over for it.
Lol!........
Denver screwed Tim over.
Look what it got them..........
It's a life of pain. Reconsider. I'm stuck with it.
I’m glad for him, even though they’re in my team’s division. But I’m not sure the Eagles know the grief they’ve let themselves in for from The Party of Tolerance.
He sure was a winner. Tebow’s first full year stats were vastly better than those of St. John of Elway.
That won't happen unless he shows up drunk wearing a Santa suit and a fake beard.
“I will soar on the wings of Eagles”
I don't think Denver is complaining.
You want to talk a life of pain? I am actually a Dolphins fan! Of course I have the 72 season to dredge up every single year.
