Tim Tebow has been released by the New England Patriots according to ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.
The quarterback, who signed with the Patriots in June, had a mediocre preseason. He completed 11 of 30 passes for 145 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions throughout the preseason. Tebow wasn’t able to challenge Ryan Mallett for the second-string job behind Tom Brady.
Tebow played his final preseason game Thursday night. Facing the New York Giants, he threw 6 of 11 passes for 91 yards, two touchdowns and one interception. The quarterback was also sacked four times.
After Thursday’s game, the popular player was asked about chances of making the team, he said, “I’m not sure. I don’t make those decisions.”
