According to ESPN’sย Adam Schefter,ย QB Tim Tebow‘s roster spot may be dependent on TE Rob Gronkowski‘s health.
“Should New England place Gronkowski on the PUP list, it would give the Patriots additional roster flexibility that could mean carrying a third quarterback,” writes Schefter.
However, should Gronkowski be healthy enough to not be placed on the PUP list, Tebow would be a likely roster cut. As things stand right now,ย Tebow appears to beย the “wrong side” of the roster bubble.
Tebow, 26, may have a hard time finding another opportunity in NFL if he’s unable to make the Patriots final roster. Before New England showed interest in him, months had past without him even visiting with an NFL team. We’ll have to see how Gronkowski is doing in the next few weeks.
