And what has he done to deserve the circus other then be a good guy and positive role model... None of the nonsense is really his fault... Why because he prays to god like many other players have done after a score or gives God praise in interviews...that is who he is and how he was raised.
Get ready because our new rb Gillislee from Florida is also very religious...

no he just refuses to do it. I am sure brad smith "felt" he was a QB but he did what the team asked of him

One has to wonder if it's just a psychological "thing." Everyone is saying Tebow can't play QB. That's all he's played his whole football career, and maybe psychologically, he wants to prove people wrong; "I can play NFL-style QB, just give me a FAIR chance."

Once the head games start, it is tough to get away from it.

Yeah, you really can't blame him for feeling that he has been unfairly diminished 1) in college 2) for being an overt Christian ( 3) for being a second stringer in the pros despite a good accounting of himself when he was forced into a starting role and 4) now being questioned as to whether he should play QB at all.

So regardless of how good he is or is not, you have to feel for the guy on a personal level.

And MOST OF ALL to be traded to those clowns at the Jest......how much can one man endure.

Truly God is testing him.
