Tim Tebow Considers College Broadcasting

What a year so far for Tim Tebow. Pre-season stats was not good, the Patriots let him go, and no other team was interested in him. He is now considering college broadcasting since his NFL career is on hold. Tebow still wants to play in the NFL, but he needs to resort to his backup plan until otherwise. According to NFL Network reporter Ian Rapoport, this is the first time there has been any indication that Tim might consider pursuing a career outside of the NFL.

Tebow has been loyal within his journey to be an NFL quarterback. He shows up to practice, stays focused, he eats right, works out, and stays humble but it seems as though nothing's working out especially when it comes to pleasing coaches. The biggest highlight so far in his three year career is back in 2012 when Denver won against Pittsburgh in the AFC wildcard game. He threw for a career high of 316 yards and two touchdowns in the 29-23 victory.

Following that season it seems as though everything has went downhill. Denver traded him for future hall-of-fame quarterback Peyton Manning, the New York Jets picked him up and he spent most of the time on the bench because Mark Sanchez was the leading quarterback, last he signed with New England and was released before the 2013-14 season began. With the season now coming to an end, and he still has no word or idea about his future in the NFL, college broadcasting may just be what he needs to do. He has enough credibility in the NCAA that will help boost his career considering that he did win the Heisman in 2007 and two BCS Championships in 2006 and 2008. 

Hopefully when the 2014-15 college season begins, the world will start to see Tim Tebow on the television screen once again, but in a different way... in a suit and tie giving the pre-game, post-game, and halftime stats. This may be his calling after all. Either way it goes, I'm sure that Tebow will be satisfied considering that it is football and he is partaking in it even though he is not on the field.
