More news out of the Philadelphia Eagles’ camp as CSN Philadelphia reports quarterback Mark Sanchez saying that he was told the team signed Tim Tebow as a camp arm.
“He’s [Tebow’s] obviously a great guy, he works hard,” Sanchez said. “We needed another guy to throw while Sam’s [Bradford] still recovering, so that’s the reason there at least as it was explained to me. So we’re excited about the upcoming year and I think we have a great group.”
Sanchez’s comments may shed some light on why the Eagles signed the former Heisman trophy winner to a one-year contract Monday.
