The Patriots couldn't keep Tim Tebow completely off limits to the media after Tuesday's minicamp practice, but did the best they could to shut down the Tebow Media Circus.
After working with coaches for about 10 minutes after practice, Tebow greeted a throng of at least 50 media members with a statement about joining the Patriots. He even showed a little humility and humor in his answer, mentioning that his teams haven't had much success against the Patriots in his first three NFL seasons, but he did not answer any questions.
"I'll speak loudly. Relax, guys," he said to the reporters as they jostled for position.
"First and foremost I just want to thank the Patriots for giving me an opportunity. I'm very thankful. It's such an honor to be a Patriot and play for coach (Bill) Belichick and coach (Josh) McDaniels and learn under Tom (Brady) and be part of this great franchise and a part of a very successful franchise. I found that out first-hand, lost to them several times, so it's going to be a lot of fun."
"I'm looking forward to working hard every single day and getting a lot better and learning under some great people. That's all I got. Thank you all so much and God bless. I'm sure we'll be talking more soon."
