Jaguars' Urban Meyer Says Tim Tebow Has 'Improved' While Attempting to Convert to TE

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Urban Meyer believes his former college star Tim Tebow is just one of 90 guys trying to make the roster this offseason. He also sees the former quarterback making notable strides as he transitions to tight end.

Speaking to reporters Thursday after another round of offseason training activities, the first-year NFL coach praised Tebow's progress.

"He has improved," Meyer said. "It's all new for him. [Tight ends coach] Tyler Bowen is doing a good job. Our tight ends as a whole, [James] O'Shaughnessy and [Ben] Ellefson in particular, if you watch a video last year and watch practice now it's night and day.
