Following his being cut by the Philadelphia Eagles, Tim Tebow is returning to the SEC Network. Upon his arrival to the network last year, he was informed that he would not be prevented from trying to rejoin the NFL. His pre-season role with the Eagles meant his absence from the SEC Network.
Tim Tebow returns to ESPN this Saturday, Sept. 12 as an SEC Network college football analyst. Tebow resumes his role on the network’s two-hour traveling pregame show, SEC Nation. The show is live from Nashville, on the Vanderbilt campus, beginning at 10 a.m. ET (9 a.m. CT) prior the Georgia at Vanderbilt football game.
“Tim quickly developed into an excellent analyst last year, and we were not shy about acknowledging his home at ESPN should he be available to return,” said John Wildhack, ESPN Executive Vice President.
SEC Nation debuted its second season last Saturday, Sept. 5, at Arkansas, with host Joe Tessitore, analyst Marcus Spears, ESPN Radio’s Paul Finebaum, reporter Kaylee Hartung and new to SEC Nation, analyst Greg McElroy. With Tebow’s return, the show will now feature three National Championship winning analysts with a total of five SEC Championship wins (2001, 2003, 2006, 2008, 2009) between the trio.
In addition to his role with ESPN, Tebow is also a contributor to ABC’s Good Morning America.
