It’s the end of an era in Jacksonville:

Should the Eagles sign Tebow? Should they bring him home?

610-632-0975. Your phone calls after the break.

But on a somewhat serious note, Tebow struggled in his tight end conversion. He whiffed on a couple of blocks the other night in a preseason game and caught zero passes on one target. He played 16 offensive snaps, zero special teams snaps, and the takeaway highlight was when Tavon Austin stepped in front to grab a ball that looked like it was intended for Tebow instead:

Tough way to go out, but he gave it a try. Tried switching positions. Had the opportunity and couldn’t make it stick.

And now life goes on.
