One fan wrote: "Dude, everyone should be given the chances Tebow gets. NFL Quarterback didn't work? Try baseball. Baseball didn't work? Have you considered TE? TE didn't work? Try Olympic Wrestling and if that doesn't work there is always power walking."

Another fan wrote: "As far as mocking Tebow goes this is pretty tame, just saying Urban cutting him is hard because he loves him so much from College. Didn't roast how bad he was as a TE or how bizarre/unprecedented this opportunity was in the first place."

"I blame the teams that kept bringing him in as QB,if someone gets him early then maybe he's a serviceable TE or a Rathman type fullback because he wasn't afraid of contact," one person wrote.

Another fan added: "Why did they invite him to camp then if that was ever a concern? Did any other team extend a camp invite? Surely...it couldn't have had anything to do with him not being good enough in his mid-30s to play a position he had never played before."

Respect to Tim Tebow for putting himself back in the arena. Zero shame in that.

And this fan wrote: "Tebow didn't deserve the chance he got. Everyone trying to be like "at least Tebow tried" while watching the same video I did. Tebow got an unfair advantage over others and was as worthless at TE as we thought. And no he wouldn't be better at a different position."
