Tim Tebow is heading back to college football.
Less than a week after being cut by the Philadelphia Eagles, the former NFL quarterback is returning to the SEC Network, ESPN announced on Wednesday afternoon.
“Tim quickly developed into an excellent analyst last year, and we were not shy about acknowledging his home at ESPN should he be available to return,” said John Wildhack, ESPN Executive Vice President in a statement.
Tebow will return to his role on the network’s pregame show, SEC Nation, on Saturday in a broadcast from Nashville.
The former Florida quarterback’s return to SEC Nation was considered by many to be a foregone conclusion if he didn’t make a NFL squad during the preseason.
