Tim Tebow Cut By The Jets

The major news coming out of New York today is that polarizing quarterback Tim Tebow has been cut by the New York Jets. Tebow was one of the six quarterbacks on the Jets' roster, after they drafted rookie out of West Virginia Geno Smith. Tim Tebow was attempting to fix his much criticized throwing mechanics by working out with quarterback guru Chris Weinke and former Jets quarterback Vinny Testaverde, according to ESPN. I find it hard to believe that Tebow's NFL career is over. Tebow has been a proven winner in the NFL despite having poor accuracy and dismal statistics to back up his wins. In 2011, he led the Denver Broncos to an 8-8 season, and a win in the Wild Card round of the playoffs, after incumbent starter Kyle Orton was benched when the team started 1-4. While many analysts believe that his hometown Jacksonville Jaguars won't pick him up (after all they did say they had no interest back in January). But they did not take a quarterback in last weeks draft, which says they either have faith in quarterback Blaine Gabbert, who will be in his third system and third offensive system, or they are going to be looking for a veteran to challenge Gabbert in training camp and the preseason. Arizona did not take a quarterback in the draft last week either, but they also have veteran Carson Palmer, whom they acquired from Oakland. Either way, his career may be over, but only time will tell if this is the last we hear about Tim Tebow. 

I had the pleasure of covering Tim Tebow's Speech at an area church in March. Here is the link to that story: http://bit.ly/15XRWVg


Here are some Tebow memories:
