Steve Spurrier Says He Wants Tim Tebow on His Minor League Football Team

Steve Spurrier will be the head coach of the Orlando franchise in the upcoming Alliance of American Football, which will debut in Feb. 2019, and he wants Tim Tebow to be his quarterback.

"That would be wonderful," Spurrier said of Tebow joining his team in Orlando on the Open Mike radio show, per Mike Bianchi of the Orlando Sentinel. "I think Tim knows about our league. He knows he’s welcome to come down (to Orlando) and play."

Tebow is currently playing minor league baseball in the New York Mets organization and hasn't played professional football since 2012.
