Tebow has been repeatedly excluded by the morally bankrupt NFL despite playing far better than what is needed to make a team, and despite having a higher quarterback rating than some players who are not cut.<ref>[http://www.nfl.com/player/timtebow/497135/careerstats NFL career stats] For example, Tim Tebow has a higher career quarterback rating than Mark Sanchez, and yet Sanchez was given more opportunities by the NFL than Tebow was.</ref>  The most plausible explanation for this is the increasingly pro-[[homosexual]] and pro-[[gambling]] bias of the league, contrary to the [[Bible]].  The [[NBA]] and major league baseball have had a few Bible-quoting stars, but the more deceitful NFL bosses particularly pander to the pro-homosexual media.

He was selected by the [[Denver Broncos]] as the 25th pick of the first round of the 2010 NFL Draft. In 2011, with the team in last place, the Broncos decided to start Tebow as quarterback. Tebow had an impressive seven-game winning streak, and took the Broncos to the division championship. In the first round of the playoffs, Tebow led the Broncos to a stunning upset victory over the [[Pittsburgh Steelers]] with 316 passing yards for an average of 31.6 yards per toss, confounding his critics and causing a million searches on the internet for the meaning of [[John 1-7 (Translated)#Chapter 3|John 3:16]].The Broncos were subsequently eliminated by the [[New England Patriots]] the following week.

The Broncos were subsequently eliminated by the then-invincible [[New England Patriots]] the following week.

Despite Tebow's success, that off season the Broncos signed quarterback [[Peyton Manning]] to a deal costing nearly $100 million, and then immediately traded Tebow to the [[New York Jets]]. During the 2012 season, Tebow was largely kept on the bench despite continued poor play by starting quarterback Mark Sanchez.  For example, on November 22, Sanchez played the entire game against the Patriots, a game which the Jets lost 49-19.  Even after Sanchez repeatedly turned the ball over by throwing interceptions and fumbled the ball by running into his own lineman after a botched handoff, Tebow did not get into the game.

Finally, Jets coach Rex Ryan benched Sanchez, but he (or the owner) still refused to give Tebow any real playing time.<ref>http://www.nj.com/jets/index.ssf/2012/12/tim_tebow_and_mark_sanchez_red.html</ref>  The repeated refusal to play Tebow became a bigger story than which side won or lost the game itself.

On April 29, 2013, after the draft weekend, the unsuccessful Jets waived their rights to Tebow. On June 10, 2013, Tebow signed a contract with the [[New England Patriots]], but the Patriots released him before the start of the season after barely giving him a chance.  The Patriots may have been using Tebow as a public relations gimmick to deflect bad publicity about the team, whose star tight end was being prosecuted for murder.  In 2015, Tebow signed with the Philadelphia Eagles but was released after the team's final preseason game, despite playing far better than necessary to make the team.<ref>As a pro, Tebow was voted by his peers to be one of the top football players, but more recently he was also voted by fellow NFL players as the League's most overrated player, with his former teammate and fellow quarterback Mark Sanchez taking second place.[http://latino.foxnews.com/latino/sports/2012/10/25/tim-tebow-mark-sanchez-most-overrated-players-in-nfl/] [https://www.latimes.com/sports/sportsnow/la-sp-sn-tim-tebow-overrated-20121025,0,5140701.story][http://espn.go.com/new-york/nfl/story/_/id/8549867/tim-tebow-new-york-jets-qb-most-overrated-per-sports-illustrated-poll]  Tebow responded by laughing it off, observing the inconsistency in the polls.</ref>

In 2016, Tebow signed a contract to play professional baseball for Columbia Fireflies within the New York Mets minor league system. In his first at bat, Tebow hit a home run. In June 2017 he was promoted to the Class-A St. Lucie Mets organization. In his first 10-games, 2 home runs and a .345 average after 10 hits in 29 at-bats
