Eagles to bring Tebow back to NFL
The Philadelphia Eagles reportedly are signing quarterback Tim Tebow to a one-year contract on Monday, bringing him back to the NFL after his brief first shot at a pro football career was cut short. Tebow won two national championships and a Heisman Trophy at Florida, then spent just two seasons for the Denver Broncos and one for the Jets before playing his last regular season game in 2012. Since then he has been working out with a passing coach and working as a commentator.
