The signing was reported as imminent last week and now it seems it’s official. Tebow is in Jacksonville.
Tebow, 33, spent four years with current Jaguars head coach Urban Meyer during his time at Florida, winning two national titles (2006 and 2008), along with a Heisman Trophy (2007). The former quarterback was selected in the first round of the 2010 NFL Draft by the Denver Broncos and would spend three years with the franchise.
He would go on to play one season with the New York Jets before bouncing around to the New England Patriots and the Philadelphia Eagles during the preseason. He has not played football in five years, spending his time playing baseball in the minor leagues.
