JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- It looks like Tim Tebow is finally going to be playing for his hometown team. Just not as a quarterback.
The Jacksonville Jaguars are expected to sign the 33-year-old Tebow to a one-year contract either later this week or next week to play tight end, a position he never played in high school, college or his previous three-year NFL career, a source confirmed to ESPN. A deal has not been agreed upon at this time, however.
Once he signs he will be reunited with Jaguars coach Urban Meyer, who coached Tebow at Florida and won a pair of national championships with the Gators.
