I think it’s a joke that Tebow was run out of the league in the first place. He never got a fair shot. He has an above .500 winning percentage, 17 TDs with 9 INTs plus 12 more touchdowns on the ground. He even won a playoff game.

Dummy Rex Ryan never gave the kid a chance in New York, which is especially puzzling because of the trash that was in front of him there. I guarantee you that if he had a chance he would have won more games than the stiffs that they ran out there in 2012.

He had a fair shot, being drafted in the first round, when everyone had him projected to go in the 3rd round. It's convenient you left out the fact that his completion percentage was less than 50%. He was also TERRIBLE in the playoffs, he just happened to win because his defense kept him in the game, despite his ineptitude. His completion percentage was 40% in the playoffs and he was embarrassed in his last playoff game.

He was a terrible QB by any standard in the NFL. Period.

Maybe top 5. I'd have to think about it.

Prescott, Jaylon, Lawrence, Staubach all would be up there off the top of my head.

Hmm, isn’t the Cowboys fan entry fee a proclamation of your love for Roger Dodger? This is a twist

Like Kaepernick... He's a lightning rod that just isn't worth the circus that comes with him for his level of play.

I'm a Tebow fan too but his play didn't validate the media circus you had to put up with.

Yet one gets a job and the other is blackballed. I wonder why?

Dez is just telling it like it is, as usual.

Honestly, i have not figured out WHY Dez has not been signed by the Texans. they have Former Ravens Passing OC as HC now. so he knows the Offense. + he's instantly the best WR on there Roster. Do a 1 year Prove it deal with him. I think you will get good production out of him. he's a great blocker + RedZone Threat.

I hear Dez is all for his teams and players and not solely out for himself.

Well i know he was out for himself here a few times with the Silver and Blue. but at the Saints he was all about the team and with Ravens he was all about the team. so yeah not sure why he's being blackballed from league. If TO can get on with 10 teams why can Dez not. just does not make since to me.

How healthy is he? Is he good enough to put up with anything that comes with him? Owens produced until teams grew tired of his act.

Has there been a time when there have been this many good younger WR's? His was never a speed game and he's a physical WR and his best play is a 50/50 ball. If I am a HC, I look at the other side of that 50/50 and why take the risk at his age?

I do not think he's been blackballed because he really hasn't done anything to deserve that. I think it's an investment/risk/reward situation.

Yeah, Dez has played in 24 games in the last 4 seasons and missed the entire 2018 season with a blown achilles. He also had issues where he was saying he was done last year after testing positive for covid before a game. At this point, the juice isn't worth the squeeze with Dez.

Dez signed with the Saints and did not last long, he then signs with the Ravens again short lived. I don't think this is a NFL league issue I think it is a Dez issue.
Dez not being in the league is absolutely a Dez issue.

But him commenting on Tim Tebow getting another shot at the league after a million years out of the league doesn't make him envious, which is what the OP was alluding to.
