What are odds on Tim Tebow throwing a TD pass? Or just making the Eagles?

Tim Tebow is likely not a betting man but that doesn’t mean that his future with the Philadelphia Eagles can’t be bet upon.

He has been a quarterback without a team since the New England Patriots cut him at the end of the 2013 presason, a former first-round pick who won a division title and a playoff game in his only year as a starter. The most polarizing quarterback in the history of the NFL is back in the league, creating a stir among fans and pundits alike. And it got the attention of the gambling site Bovada, as well.

The former Denver Bronco, former New York Jet and (very briefly) former Patriot is an underdog to make the Eagles. The odds are 5-2 that he will make the Eagles 53-man roster for Week 1, this according to Bovada’s odds. And the odds are 3-1 that if he does make the roster, he will eventually start for Chip Kelly’s team.

Other Tebow odds from Bovada, with the first three contingent on him making the 53-man roster:

Will throw a TD pass: 2-1
Will rush for a TD: 2-1
Will record a TD reception: 20-1
Gets cut, traded, released or retires: 1-1

Tebow hasn’t thrown an NFL pass since Dec. 17, 2012 when he was a member of the Jets (it was an incompletion). His last touchdown came in the playoffs at the end of the 2011 season, in a wild-card weekend win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. In that game, Tebow threw for two touchdowns and also rushed for one in a dramatic 29-23 overtime win for the Broncos.
