Former Denver Broncos, New York Jets and New England Patriots quarterback Tim Tebow is currently out of a job, but he has reportedly received an inquiry from an undisclosed team in the league. The news surfaced during the NBC pre-game showing leading up to Sunday Night Football, but Tebow has reportedly turned down the offer.

Tebow is still interested in returning to the NFL and getting a new job, but he does not appear to be interested unless he can continue to play quarterback.

You have to appreciate his determination, but Tebow needs to realize that he likely will never get another chance under center.

Interestingly enough, Tebow also received some interest from the USA Rugby team to join their squad and switch sports, but once again he turned it down in order to focus on a return to the NFL so that he can play the quarterback position.

At some point, Tebow will need to realize he is not an NFL quarterback.

If he wants to return to the NFL, he needs to realize that sooner rather than later.
