Sources: Tim Tebow works out with Jacksonville Jaguars as tight end

Former NFL quarterback Tim Tebow recently worked out with the Jacksonville Jaguars as a tight end, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

He reached out to the team and requested a tryout. Switching to tight end, according to some, may have extended his NFL career.

Sources said that the team has not made a decision.

Tebow, 33, hasn't played in the league since 2012 with the Jets when he appeared in 12 games, making two starts at QB.

The former Heisman Trophy winner played three seasons in the league, two with Denver. His best season was in 2011 when he played in 14 games going 7-4 in 11 starts to lead the Broncos to the playoffs.
