    Tebow Signs 2-Year Deal With Pats

    By HOWARD ULMAN AP Sports Writer
    FOXBOROUGH, Mass. June 11, 2013 (AP)

    Tim Tebow is back on the field with an NFL team — the New England Patriots.

    The Patriots announced the signing of the former Jets quarterback on Tuesday, six weeks after he was cut by New York and just in time for the start of the three-day Patriots minicamp that runs through Thursday.

    Tebow practiced with veteran New England starter Tom Brady and backup Ryan Mallett. The newest Patriot wore No. 5, not his familiar 15 — which belongs to Mallett — on his shorts and helmet. The QBs wore red jerseys without numbers.

    "First and foremost, I just want to thank the Patriots for giving me an opportunity. I'm very thankful," Tebow said on the field after practice. "It's such an honor to be a Patriot and play for Coach (Bill) Belichick and for Coach (Josh) McDaniels, learn under Tom (Brady), and be a part of this very successful franchise."

    Two people with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press that Tebow was signed for two years with no guaranteed money. One person says he will make the veteran's minimum salary, $630,000 in 2013, with incentives.

    The people spoke on condition of anonymity because terms of the deals had not been announced.

    ESPN first reported terms of the signing.

    "Anything we do, we feel is in the best interests of the team," Belichick said at a standing-room-only news conference before practice. "We'll see how it goes."

    With 15 video cameras and more than 40 media members in the audience, Belichick said, "We've been in front of bigger crowds before."

    Tebow, 25, is being reunited with McDaniels, the Patriots offensive coordinator who was Denver's head coach when the Broncos traded into the first round to take him with the 25th draft pick in 2010. McDaniels stood next to Tebow on the practice field.

    "I'm looking forward to working hard every single day, and getting a lot better, and learning under some great people," Tebow said during his 40-second visit with reporters. "So, that's all I got. But thank you so much and God bless. I'm sure we'll be talking more soon."

        Oh yeah, that'll send a message to Brady. Looks like this year's Pat's are this year's drama queens.

          Saw him a few times in Jets practice. I did not understand why he was not used more, then after watching practice I got it. He can't throw a ball period. Create space he can use his legs and great reaction to flick it on the run to an open receiver but the guy can't make NFL throws on a regular basis. He looked awful in practice last year which sucked as a long sufferring Jet fan cause Sanchez is mentally weak. I hope Tebow finds success but he is a gimmick unless he learns to throw. He is a footbal player but not a quarterback

              Every team needs a water boy. I can already hear Brady saying "Don't forget my towel bitch".

                  Well, since Brett Favre retired, Rachel Nichols really hasn't had much to do...so much so, she quit and went to work for CNN. Like that is an upward career move.

                        He's trying to pass to JC. Except He isn't on the field (those sandals aren't up to NFL regulations, so He didn't make the team)

                              This is all due to Josh McDufus who drafted Teblow back in 2010. 2013 will put all rumors to rest that the dude can't ball once he's been knocked on his ass with an injury that will permanently take him out of the game. Who do the Pats play first? The Buffalo Bills? Okay, maybe their second opponent, The Jets.
