Getting signed for training camp is a long, long way from “being back in the NFL”.
Your world view is getting tons of support from billionaire athletes who desire to preserve the NFL's status quo and its highly regarded reputation for hiring high caliber individuals.
In the article there was no discussion why Tebow wants to join a known communist front organization - something I worry about. From today's Washington Post:
“It's mind blowing to me that kaepernick has no job but Tebow does,” Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Darius Slay said Tuesday on Twitter, referring to former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who has been a free agent since 2017. Appending a face-palm emoji, Slay added, “No hate toward Tebow just don't understand.”
“Tebow got a job before kaepernick,” Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Devin Bush tweeted, adding a crying-with-laughter emoji. “Wait til we play Jacksonville.”
“Dez Bryant saw a racial element in the expected signing, after he initially declared, “So Tebow haven't played an NFL game in damn near a decade and it's that simple … no hate but you got to be kidding me.””
“Bryant, a free agent wide receiver who played last season with the Baltimore Ravens, subsequently posted a longer note to Twitter in which he said his remarks were “not a slight at Tebow” but a lesson to “wake up and see what goes on and take care of yours.””
“This is why I preach unity in black society and taking care of US,” Bryant wrote. “ … Controlling what we can control and building our community.”
“It's all about who u know,” former Kansas City Chiefs safety Ron Parker tweeted on Monday, adding “don't burn bridges” in a hashtag. Parker, who also played with four other teams during an eight-year career, expressed amazement that the 33-year-old Tebow might get signed after “sitting out that many years.”
“They told me I was getting old at 30,” he wrote, adding a laughing emoji.
“Adewale Ogunleye didn't have as positive a view of things. “The Tebow signing is an insult!” exclaimed the former Miami Dolphins and Chicago Bears defensive end.”
““Picking up Tebow show me the jags clearly don't have winning on they mind!!!!” Chris Johnson, a former Tennessee Titans and Arizona Cardinals running back, tweeted.”
“I can't believe they think he'll lead that locker room man!” Nate Washington, a former wide receiver mostly known for his time with the Titans, tweeted Tuesday. He was replying to another user who wrote of Tebow, “NOBODY gonna listen to that man lol.”
