Philadelphia Eagles to sign Tim Tebow

PHILADELPHIA, April 20 (UPI) -- Tim Tebow will reportedly sign with the Philadelphia Eagles Monday as their fourth quarterback for the 2015-2016 season.

The team and Tebow reportedly reached a final agreement Sunday, after it was reported Tebow was working out with the Eagles. Tebow will put his name on the dotted line Monday so he can begin offseason training with the team.

He will be joining the roster with quarterbacks Sam Bradford, Mark Sanchez and Matt Barkley. The Eagles tried to trade Barkley before signing Tebow.

This will be Tebow's first full season since his time with the New York Jets in 2012. He was released before the 2013 season by the New England Patriots. Prior to the Jets, he played for the Denver Broncos but was released when they signed Peyton Manning.

Since the Patriots, Tebow has been working as an analyst on TV. Despite a loyal fan base, the 27-year-old football player had a bumpy start to the NFL due to a completed pass rate of only 47.9 percent and a failure to show up in pockets.

"I've always been a fan of Tim," Eagles coach Chip Kelly's told the NFL network in March. "It's getting an exposure to a player so that when you have to make a decision and say, 'Hey, what are we going to do now?' you say, 'I don't know anything about these players. Let's bring them in and work them out,' and it may be too late at that point in time. So all we're doing is just doing our homework."
