Since leaving the NFL, Tim Tebow has had offers from the Canadian and Arena Football Leagues, but he politely turned the offer down. While Tebow doesn’t seem interested in joining a league other than the NFL, teams from around the country — and now the world — are still putting out their offers.

The latest team to give Tebow an offer comes from overseas.

Tebow was offered a four-month offer from the Milano Seamen of the Italian federation for American football. The offer from the team claims that they will pay Tebow $200,000 for his efforts.

“The offer has been made to his agent and now we’re waiting for a response,” Seamen team president Marco Mutti said, per the Associated Press. “We would be more than happy to have him.”

There is absolutely no chance that Tebow will be joining the Italian federation for American football, but it is an entertaining offer at the least. If there is one thing we will get out of this story, it is a barrage of Tebow-Seamen jokes.
