I don't even know if he'll make the team. Unlike some people I'm don't pretend to know everthing about football and whats going on in Bill Belichicks mind. I would imagine they'll try him at QB "like I heard on the radio" then move on from there. |

Re: Patriots sign Tim Tebow
Coach Bill Belichick declined Tuesday to comment on what position Tim Tebow will play.
As expected, Belichick revealed no information and gave no insight into the Tebow signing. "What position? We're going to do what's best for the football team," Belichick said. He cut the press conference off on his own after getting fed up with too many Tebow questions. "Tim's a talented player that's smart and works hard. We'll see how it goes." ESPN is reporting that Tebow was signed to play quarterback. CBS' Mike Freeman says he'll be used elsewhere in addition to under center. There are 2014 playing time incentives in Tebow's non-guaranteed contract that are not limited to quarterback snaps. Source: Ian Rapoport on Twitter And the media circus begins. |
