The Final Play For Him

There will be over 700 players cut from NFL teams before the day is over. Players will fight for 256 jobs available on the eight man practice squad for each team. That leaves about 450 players looking in from the outside. Some will end up on another team and prosper, but some have played their last game.

I thought Tim Tebow had a spot on the Pats, but I was wrong. Maybe he will resurface on another team, but his audition with the Pats didn't go that well.

It might have been an ominous note when Coach Belichick allowed him to throw a TD pass in the final seconds of the preseason game against the Giants. It reminded me of the time when he let Vinny Testaverde throw a TD in the final seconds of the last game of the season to keep his TD pass streak alive. The same goes for when Doug Flutie drop-kicked an extra point in a game that was already won. It was the last moment in their career for those two players.

If Tebow never plays again, at least he had one final shining moment. It would have been nice if he did it during a regular season game. What is his future?
