Sources: Pats to sign Tim Tebow

The New England Patriots will sign Tim Tebow, league sources told ESPN.

The Patriots are signing Tebow, who is expected to participate in the team's mandatory minicamp Tuesday, as a quarterback, according to sources.

The move reunites Tebow with Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, who was the Broncos' head coach when Denver traded into the first round to draft the Heisman Trophy winner in 2010.

Patriots head coach Bill Belichick often has spoken with admiration for Tebow's versatility, intelligence and character. Belichick covets what he has described as tough, smart, versatile football players.

this will work out...could be either a "ho hum" thing...

or maybe the best thing for Tebow and the Patriots...

I do believe one thing, though. In terms of shaking off what I feel was a curse put on him by the Jets and their perpetual clown show, I think Tebow will emerge from this in a better place.

Maybe he'll go on to have a decent NFL career. Maybe he won't. But if he does what the Patriots ask of him, he should no longer be a laughingstock, whatever path he takes.

I truly hope it works out well for all involved.
