Tebow Signs 2-year Deal With Patriots

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) Tim Tebow is back on the field with an NFL team - the New England Patriots.

The Patriots announced the signing of the former Jets quarterback on Tuesday, six weeks after he was cut by New York and just in time for the start of the three-day Patriots minicamp that runs through Thursday.
