Report: Tim Tebow to Sign 1-Year Jaguars Contract; Will Try to Make Team as TE

Tim Tebow's NFL hiatus is over.

The 2007 Heisman Trophy winner will reportedly sign a one-year deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars with a chance to make the team as a tight end, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported April 29 that Tebow had approached representatives from the Jaguars to request a tight end tryout. He also worked out with Jaguars tight ends coach Tyler Bowen.

That the 33-year-old could manage to get another shot in the NFL—at a new position no less—still comes as a big surprise.
