Jaguars Cut TE Tim Tebow After 1 Preseason Game

The former Heisman Trophy-winning QB’s NFL comeback attempt is over almost as quickly as it began. Tim Tebow, who converted to tight end and joined the Jacksonville Jaguars last month, was cut by the team on Tuesday. Tebow was a victim of the first-round roster cuts after being targeted just once for zero catches in the first preseason game. Tebow posted a thank you to the Jags on social media after the news.

 

“Thank you to the Jaguars organization and everyone who has supported me in this journey. And we know that… God works all things together for good. Romans 8:28.” — Tim Tebow

 

Since exiting the NFL in 2015, Tebow played minor league baseball for the Mets and published multiple books. Tebow fans will have to wait to find out his next move.
