NFL teams may not have their eyes set on Tim Tebow, but his career on television is definitely gaining more ground.
The former Denver Broncos quarterback is bound to become part of "Good Morning America" as a contributor of the award-winning television show, ABC announced. Tebow "will help launch GMA's 'Motivate Me Monday' series, featuring individuals and their amazing stories of triumph."
ABC added that "Tebow will appear in studio and live on location in towns across America with a wide-range of reports that motivate and inspire."
In an article by Bleacher Report, Tebow presented himself well as an analyst for ESPN. Tim Brando of Fox Sports noticed his skills as a sports analyst while he was working on air with the SEC Network.
"Drawing rave reviews from Brando and others, Tebow has proved he has the chops, and Good Morning America clearly believes he has talent," Bleacher Report noted.
Before his stint as an ESPN analyst, Tebow played quarterback for the Broncos and New York Jets. The former Heisman trophy winner was drafted by the Broncos in 2010. He played 35 games with the Broncos and Jets before being traded to the New England Patriots. The Patriots let him go before the start of the 2013 season, however.
Since he stopped playing for the NFL, Tebow joined ESPN. Late in 2013, he signed a broadcasting contract with the sports network for several years. One of his projects involved providing college football coverage for the SEC Network during the summer. He has not stopped training for football, however, and remains optimistic about a comeback to the league.
Bleacher Report recalled that when Tebow was invited to work for ESPN in 2013, he tweeted, "I am so excited that ESPN has given me this incredible opportunity. When I was six years old I fell in love with the game of football and while I continue to pursue my dream of playing quarterback in the NFL, this is an amazing opportunity to be a part of the unparalleled passion of college football and the SEC."
"Good Morning America" airs every weekday from 7 to 9 a.m. EDT.
