On Saturday, reports surfaced regarding Denver Broncos new executive V.P. of operations John Elway and his comments made to S.I.'s Peter King about quarterback Tim Tebow.
According to King, Elway stated how didn't think Tebow was a very good quarterback at the moment--which is hard to say considering how the former Florida standout played over the last three weeks of the season. However, Elway took the time to clarify his comments on his Twitter account.
"To clarify my thoughts on Tim Tebow... I think he's a very good football player, and if anyone can turn themselves into a great QB, Tim can."
"Myself and our entire organization think very highly of him. We are pleased with his first year as a Bronco."
"Any speculation that the Denver Broncos are considering moving Tim is completely false."
The Broncos hired Elway last week to help turn around a team that has recorded just 10 wins over the last two seasons. As for Tebow, he started the final three games of the season for Denver and with the rumors of Kyle Orton being on the market--there's chance he will be the starter for 2011 as well. Of course, with all of the comments made over the last 24 hours, it should be interesting to see what type of relationship Elway and Tebow establish during the offseason.
