Tebow had a nice run in 2011, but for the most part his brief NFL career was one of failure.

THE MLB STORY

Tim Tebow announced in August of 2016 that, after washing out of the NFL, that his goal was to play in major league baseball.

Tebow was all-state as a baseball player in high school but he hadn’t played baseball since 2005.

Former MLB catcher Chad Moeller said this wasn’t a joke. "I am beyond impressed with Tim's athleticism and swing, and it goes without saying that he has shown a high level of discipline and strong work ethic. I see bat speed and power and real baseball talent. I truly believe Tim has the skill set and potential to achieve his goal of playing in the Major Leagues, and based on what I have seen over the past two months, it could happen relatively quickly."

Gary Sheffield also had nice things to say about Tebow. “He’s a NATURAL,” Sheffield wrote at the time. “I absolutely believe in his ability to play in the bigs. Tim has IT #focused.”

Tebow starting his attempt to make the big leagues after the Mets signed him and assigned him to the Arizona Fall League.
