Tim Tebow shows solid power, shaky skills in MLB workout

<p>Tim Tebow has been given another shot at the NFL, as the Chip&nbsp;Kelly-lead&nbsp;Eagles continue&nbsp;their&nbsp;somewhat&nbsp;bizarre wheeling and dealing this off-season.</p><p>According to sources for&nbsp;<a href="http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/12723790/tim-tebow-philadelphia-eagles-reach-contract-agreement" target="_blank">multiple</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/JayGlazer/status/589919932864827392" target="_blank">outlets</a>, the 27-year-old former Heisman Trophy winner, who hasn&#39;t played a regular-season game since 2012, will sign a one-year deal&nbsp;with the Philadelphia Eagles&nbsp;Monday at the &quot;<a href="http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/12723790/tim-tebow-philadelphia-eagles-reach-contract-agreement" target="_blank">minimum salary</a>.&quot;&nbsp;</p><p>Tebow&#39;s&nbsp;signing by no means indicates he&#39;ll have a spot on the Eagles roster next season, especially considering how many QBs will be competing for the position.</p><p>He&#39;s set to join his former New York Jets teammate&nbsp;Mark Sanchez, ex-Rams quarterback&nbsp;Sam Bradford&nbsp;and&nbsp;two other QBs who will all battle&nbsp;for spots on the team.</p> <p>But the three big names there also haven&#39;t been doing so well.&nbsp;<a href="http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/12723790/tim-tebow-philadelphia-eagles-reach-contract-agreement" target="_blank">According to ESPN</a>, this means,&nbsp;<strong>&quot;The Eagles [will]&nbsp;have&nbsp;under contract three of the five worst QBs in the league over the last five years.&quot;</strong></p><p>Tebow definitely&nbsp;struggled during his&nbsp;first go in the NFL. His short regular-season&nbsp;career spanned from 2010-2012, where he threw for&nbsp;2,422 yards and just&nbsp;17&nbsp;touchdowns for&nbsp;the New York Jets and Denver Broncos.&nbsp;He was later picked up by the New England Patriots&nbsp;but was cut after a sluggish 2013 preseason. Tebow&nbsp;finished his career with a Total Quarterback Rating of just 33.4.</p><p>But the potential return of &quot;Tebowmania&quot; has already created a huge stir. His legion of supporters made their voices heard on Twitter Sunday night with, let&#39;s call it&nbsp;a general state of&nbsp;euphoria. His opponents, meanwhile, were not so impressed.

Rant&nbsp;Sports called&nbsp;his return&nbsp;<a href="http://www.rantsports.com/nfl/2015/04/19/tim-tebow-signing-with-philadelphia-eagles-is-irrelevant/" target="_blank">&quot;Irrelevant&quot;</a> and Football.com labeled it&nbsp;<a href="https://www.football.com/en-us/3-reasons-why-tim-tebow-coming-back-is-terrible-for-everyone/" target="_blank">&quot;Terrible For Everyone.&quot;</a></p><p>Still, NFL Insider&nbsp;Adam Schefter points out, some believe&nbsp;Tebow, Sanchez and Bradford&nbsp;could all&nbsp;simply be pawns in a&nbsp;larger scheme the Eagles have planned for next season.</p><p>&nbsp;<strong>&quot;I think there&#39;s also speculation here about the Eagles moving forward about whether or not they could be&nbsp;players for Marcus Mariota. There are&nbsp;still&nbsp;people who think they can be. We&#39;ll find out whether or not that can be a week from&nbsp;Thursday in the NFL draft,&quot;</strong>&nbsp;<a href="http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/12723790/tim-tebow-philadelphia-eagles-reach-contract-agreement" target="_blank">NFL Insider&nbsp;Adam Schefter told ESPN</a>.</p><p>At this point, who knows what Chip Kelly has up his sleeve. But hey,&nbsp;it&#39;s certainly been&nbsp;fun to watch.</p><p><em>This video includes images from Getty Images and music from&nbsp;<a href="http://www.bensound.com/royalty-free-music/track/moose" target="_blank">Bensound / CC BY ND 3.0</a>.</em></p>
