Tebow Still Battling Sickness Before Senior Bowl Game

Posted by: Brandon on Jan 29th, 2010 1 Comment

Former Florida Gator quarterback Tim Tebow has battled off SEC defenses, criticisms from every NFL scout, and now, the former Gator is battling a sickness before his one chance to shine in front of the scouts.

Tebow has been suffering from strep throat throughout his workouts this week and hasn’t really showed any sign of recovery and its right before the Senior Bowl game.

Jeremy Fowler from the Orlando Sentinel was told that Tebow is still very sick as of Friday afternoon. He looked real pale during the walkthrough on Friday. During the game on Saturday, Tebow will be splitting time with both Oklahoma State’s Zac Robinson and West Virginia’s Jarrett Brown.

Monday is when it started and was probably the worst for Tim. He suffered from a 103.5 degree fever and also dealt with sweating throughout the night.

We all know how tough Tebow is and I don’t think he cares how sick he is, he will still probably fight through it and play but let’s just pray and hope he recovers and is ready to go for Saturday.

    I really just do not understand this entire thing. Someone please fill me in on how Tony Pike is the #1 QB at this bowl and Tebow is getting a D+ grade from the “expert” McShay. Did he not watch the Sugar Bowl when these two went head to head? I am an Alabama fan and I have hated Tebow’s guts all through his time at Florida, but the guy is amazing. I hope some GM gives Tebow the chance he deserves, but if they listen to idiots like McShay then that does not seem to be likely.
