Tim Tebow has an estimated net worth of $3 million
Tim Tebow is an American professional football player with an estimated net worth of $3 million. He is 6’3″ and weighs 236 pounds. Tim Tebow was born on August 14, 1987 in Makati City, Philippines to American Baptist missionaries. Tebow was homeschooled by his mother who instilled in him strong Christian values from a young age. In 2006, The University of Florida offered Tim Tebow an athletic scholarship. He accepted the offer and played backup up during his freshman year. In 2007, Tebow’s was promoted to the team’s starting quarterback. That year he won many awards for his outstanding athleticism including the coveted Heisman Trophy and the Davey O’Brien Award. While playing for the Gators, Tebow achieved many accomplishments including leading the team to victory at the 2008 BSC National Championship.
In 2010 Tebow was chosen as the Denver Bronco’s 25th overall pick in the 2010 NFL Draft. He signed a five-year contract for $11.25 million to play the team’s second string quarterback behind Kyle Orton. In 2011 Tebow was bumped up to the Bronco’s starting quarterback. He helped lead the Broncos to the NFL playoffs that same season. Although Tebow became popular due to his skills on the field, he also became a spectacle to football viewers and media outlets for “Tebowing”. “Tebowing” is when one drops their head, kneels down, and prays. This act helped Tebow become a cultural phenomenon during the 2011 NFL season.
Sports media outlets went crazy in March of 2012 when Tebow got traded to the New York Jets. The Jets starting quarterback Mark Sanchez continued to play for most of the season. Tebow received minimal playing time, and he was subsequently released from the Jets in April 2013. In June 2013, the New England Patriots picked him up and reportedly offered him a two-year contract. After only spending 12 weeks as the team’s quarterback, Tebow was released from his contract with the Patriots. He was cut from Patriots because all NFL teams were required to cut their rosters down to only 53 players. Tebow stayed grounded in his faith stating, ”I’m blessed, because of my faith, that I don’t have to worry about the future because I know who holds my future.”
Tebow is currently a free agent. When he is not perfecting his skills on the field, he makes time for charitable endeavors. Tim Tebow founded the Tim Tebow Foundation in 2010. The faith-based organization focuses on helping the lives of less fortunate children in the United States and Philippines. Tebow’s foundation grants wishes for children facing mortality, builds playrooms for children in orphanages and hospitals, and performs other charitable works.
