The last time Tim Tebow played in a NFL game was a really, really long time ago
We haven't seen Tim Tebow in a NFL game since 2012. 2012!
Well it looks like this whole Tim Tebow to the Jaguars thing is actually going to happen as NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported today that the two sides should be agreeing on a one-year deal “in the next week or so.”
Tebow is going to be coming back to try to earn a spot on the roster as a tight end which, of course, isn’t the position he played the last time we saw him on a NFL roster. Not sure why a team would want to find someone who will be 34 years old at the start of next season and has never played that position in the NFL before but hey, I’m not Urban Meyer.
Speaking of the last time Tebow was in a NFL game… it has been a while. Check out this wild stat:
Tim Tebow last played in an NFL game 3,053 days ago.

The last time he appeared in a NFL game was back on Dec. 30 in 2012 when he was with the Jets. He actually started two games that year and completed 6 of 8 passes.
Tebow went on to have brief stints with the Eagles and Patriots but didn’t make either of their regular-season rosters.
Now it looks like he’s going to be back.
Congrats, Jaguars fans!
