Tim Tebow is a man of many talents, and since stepping away from football, he has ventured into several different career paths, from sports media to business.
On Monday, however, the former Heisman Trophy winner received some big news as he officially agreed to a multi-year contract extension to remain a college football analyst with ESPN.
Tebow will continue appearing on SEC Network’s traveling pregame show SEC Nation and will also be involved in ESPN’s College Football Playoff coverage across the network.
Tebow Reacts to News
In ESPN’s announcement of the extension, Tebow shared a statement about his return to the network.
“I love this game and getting to talk about it every Saturday with the crews on SEC Network and ESPN is a gift I don’t take lightly,” Tebow said. “SEC fans bring a passion that never gets old, and I’m grateful I get to keep doing this alongside people who feel like family.”
Tebow has been a regular part of the network’s college football coverage since joining ESPN in 2014, and that role will continue for the foreseeable future.
Congratulations, @TimTebow!
