ESPN's Chris Mortensen reported Saturday that it’s "a virtual certainty" Tim Tebow will play for the Jaguars in 2013.
After trying to trade for him in the offseason, Mortensen says Jaguars owner Shad Khan still wants Tebow, and the expectation is that Jacksonvile will have an "open competition" at the quarterback position next year with Tebow, Blaine Gabbert, and Chad Henne. Multiple reports have confirmed that the Jets plan to part ways with Tebow after the season, but it's not clear if they'll attempt to trade him or give him his outright release. If Tebow has any chance to resurrect his career as a starting quarterback, it will be in Jacksonville. The Jets can release him with a "minimal" cap hit if they decide to grant him his walking papers.
