Trey Burton on Tim Tebow's Jaguars Contract: 'I Don't Understand the Outrage'

Trey Burton doesn't see a problem with Tim Tebow getting an opportunity with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

"I don't understand the outrage," the free-agent tight end said, per Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. "There are 90 [roster] spots. If they want to bring someone in, why not? A lot of teams take fliers on guys from various backgrounds every year."

Burton was teammates with Tebow on the Philadelphia Eagles during the 2015 preseason, although the latter did not make the roster for the regular season.
