Tim Tebow. Photo via CBS Sports. Tim Tebow and Urban Meyer are apparently getting back together, this time in the NFL. The former Florida star and 2007 Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback is expected to team up with his college coach by signing a one-year contract to play for the Jacksonville Jaguars, the NFL Network reported Monday. The league-owned network said the deal “could be official in the next week or so.” The 33-year-old Tebow would be returning to the NFL after four years (2016-19) in the New York Metsâ organization and heâd be playing for Meyer for the first time since his senior year in 2009. This reunion would come with a twist, though. Tebow would be joining the Jaguars as a tight end. He switched positions after retiring from baseball in February. He worked out for Jacksonville a week later. Meyer and general manager Trent Baalke are seemingly waiting until after this weekend’s rookie minicamp to get the deal done. Tebow, who grew up in Jacksonville, could fill a huge hole with his hometown team. The Jaguars decided not to pick up a team option in veteran Tyler Eifertâs contract and traded oft-injured 2019 draft pick Josh Oliver to Baltimore. They signed run-blocking specialist Chris Manhertz in free agency, brought back James OâShaughnessy and drafted Ohio Stateâs Luke Farrell in the fifth round. Those were considered minor moves after Meyer vowed to completely revamp the position group. Tebow, at the very least, would provide a splash. âThat will be interesting to see how that contributes to us on offense,â Jaguars co-owner Tony Khan said recently. âObviously Urban knows Tim really well, and Timâs got a great history of winning. Urban really believes he can help us, and I think it makes a lot of sense. And itâs a position where we need to get better.â But how much can a guy on the wrong side of 30 whoâs never played the position bring to the team? Tebowâs value could mean as much off the field as on it. Meyer has said repeatedly that signing players who already know his methodology would be helpful in Year 1. Tebow would become the sixth guy on Jacksonville’s roster who previously played for Meyer, joining Farrell, running back Carlos Hyde, guard Andrew Norwell, defensive end Lerentee McCray and defensive tackle DaVon Hamilton. Tebow played quarterback for Meyer between 2006 and 2009, helping the Gators win two national championships while becoming one of the most recognizable – and polarizing – athletes in college sports. He was a first-round draft pick by Denver in 2010, but his long windup led to a short NFL career. He spent time with the Broncos, the New York Jets, New England and Philadelphia. His last NFL game came with the Jets in 2012. They cut him in April 2013, three months after then-Jaguars general manager Dave Caldwell famously said he wouldnât sign Tebow âeven if heâs released.â Tebow has received rock-star media coverage at every NFL stop and might get as much attention in Jacksonville as franchise quarterback Trevor Lawrence, the top pick in the 2021 draft. Tebow won a playoff game with Denver in 2012, but never developed into a consistent NFL starter. He declined several suggested moves to tight end – he even asked Meyer for guidance – and then ended up switching sports and joining the Mets. âWhen he was a quarterback in the NFL, that was a big topic,â Meyer said at the end of the draft. âI was so busy I couldnât give him the time. âWhat do you think? What do you think?â And I didnât know. I was too busy to even think it through. âI know playing a position in the NFL without (experience), thatâs a long shot. This was years ago.â But when Tebow asked about an NFL comeback in February, Meyer invited him to the facility for a workout. Meyer made it clear he didnât feel like he owed Tebow anything, either. âI have one job and that is to win games with the Jacksonville Jaguars,â Meyer said. âIf Tim Tebow or Travis Etienne can help us win, then thatâs my job to get them ready to go play.â
