Tim Tebow will soon become a New Yorker following his trade to the New York Jets. This trade occurred just one day after Tebow’s current team, the Denver Broncos, signed Peyton Manning as their starting quarterback. Tebow will be the backup quarterback for the Jets, filling in for starting quarterback Mark Sanchez.
Tebow won two national championships for the University of Florida before being a first round draft pick for the Denver Broncos. He is known for kneeling to pray after victories, a pose that has become known as Tebowing. He’s outspoken in his Christian beliefs and even painted a Bible verse on the black streaks beneath his eyes until the NFL banned the practice.
The Jets, who finished last season 8-8, are hoping for a shot at the Super Bowl this year, however, oddsmakers believe Tebow will neither help nor hurt the Jets’ chances. Their odds at a Super Bowl win still stand at 25 to 1.
