Tim Tebow News: Cowboys to Sign QB? No, But they Should

Twitter has recently been bombarded with a lot of posts requesting for Tim Tebow to return to the NFL.

Current starting quarterback for the Cowboys, Tony Romo, went down with a back injury during the game between Dallas and the Redskins, and fans immediately resorted to social media to ask for the former Heisman trophy winner's return.

Tebow is currently working for ESPN as a football analyst and remains positive that he will be returning as a top quarterback in the NFL. In a report by SportsBlog.com, a lot of NFL teams are also avoiding the media and fan frenzy that popular players like Tebow bring with them everywhere.

Some fans actually believe that Tebow is a better choice than Dallas' other quarterback Brandon Weeden. Even without Romo, the Dallas Cowboys are a contender for the Super Bowl, because of their good offensive line and excellent running back. Tim Tebow managed to lead the Denver Broncos to the playoffs and actually won, despite the lack of team talent before. His type of play could actually work for a team that employs a run-based offense. Even if Dallas preferred to make Weeden starting quarterback, Tebow can still be efficient as a playmaker and run the ball well for the team off the bench.

According to ChatSports.com, quarterback Jon Kitna is planning to retire. Even after the Cowboys signed Weeden, they would still be short on quarterbacks with game experience. They are reportedly eyeing on names like Josh Freeman and Alex Tanney. Tim Tebow has also been mentioned plenty of times but the Cowboys are allegedly concerned that he has not played professional football in over a year.

In a report by Sports World Report, Tebow can be a wild option for Dallas, no matter how slim the chances are. Jerry Jones, however, is known for displaying a good show and he might make a decent offer to Tebow. Tebow previously said that he is in the best shape and the Cowboys can benefit much if turns out to be true.

SportsBlog.com also wrote that even if Tebow might lack accuracy in his passes at times, one of the Cowboys' main strengths is their wide receiver so they can deal with the situation properly. Jerry Jones, owner of the Dallas Cowboys, also likes to be in the spotlight so it would be a plus for him to have Tebow. An offensive team like Dallas can also be an opportunity for Tebow to redeem himself and make an official return to the NFL.
