OK, so we know that Tim Tebow’s blocking, er, leaves something to be desired (that’s being kind), as we saw not once but a second time in the Jacksonville Jaguars’ first preseason game against the Cleveland Browns.
But what about the other part of a tight end’s duties, catching footballs?
It looks like there was a chance Tebow could have caught a pass … but teammate Tavon Austin was in the vicinity as the ball was thrown by Gardner Minshew and it was the wide receiver who made the reception.
Did someone make a mistake on the route? Should that have been a Tebow ball? See for yourself:

Oops. Given the reaction to those blocks, imagine what it would have been like if he had caught that pass.
