Tim Tebow completed all three of his Week 10 passes for eight yards, and rushed four times for 14 yards in the Jets' loss to Seattle.
Tebow's role was significantly increased this week; his seven touches were a season high and we're fairly certain his snap count was, as well. It's an indication that the Jets are losing faith in Mark Sanchez, and for good reason. Don't be surprised if Tebow is given the starting nod sooner rather than later. The Jets head to the Edward Jones Dome for a Week 11 date with the Rams.

Tim Tebow lined up as a wide receiver four times in Week 8 against the Dolphins.
Tebow wasn't targeted on any of the four passes, but Mark Sanchez did go 4-for-4 for 43 yards on the attempts. Offensive coordinator Tony Sparano and the Jets continue to use Tebow as a pricey decoy, but if it gives the offense even the slightest of advantages, they'll continue to trot him out there. From a fantasy perspective, Tebow has little value and will only garner some if Sanchez is benched.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports a trade of Tim Tebow is "not gonna happen."
"Tim Tebow is not gonna be traded before the trade deadline," Schefter stated bluntly on a Wednesday afternoon SportsCenter. Now the question is whether the Jets have any designs on the league's most expensive decoy replacing an ineffective Mark Sanchez some time during the season's second half.

Action News Jacksonville, a website for two local TV news stations, reports the Jaguars are "making a play" for Tim Tebow prior to Thursday's trade deadline.
The site doesn't have a history of breaking Jaguars stories, so take the report with a grain of salt. Owner Shad Khan has publicly stated that he would have "100 percent" drafted Tebow had he been in charge two years ago, and the Jaguars attempted to swoop in and steal the local star from the Jets at the last minute when the Broncos were dangling him in March. Both the New York Daily News and ESPN New York have reported the Jets have no plans to trade Tebow this week.

Tim Tebow had one touch in the Jets' Week 8 loss to the Dolphins.
Tebow heads into the bye with three pass attempts and 23 carries out of the Wildcat through eight games. The Jets and owner Woody Johnson reportedly have no plans to trade him by Tuesday's deadline, so he's stuck with this bit role behind Mark Sanchez. Tebow is just a lottery ticket kind of stash in fantasy formats in case Sanchez goes down or gets benched.

The Jets have no plans to trade Tim Tebow prior to Tuesday's trade deadline.
Tebow has averaged just seven offensive snaps per game this year and has passed the ball just three times, but head coach Rex Ryan wants to get him more involved on offense moving forward. We've now heard from ESPN New York and the New York Daily News suggesting that Tebow isn't going anywhere. With owner Woody Johnson also in his corner, the gimmick quarterback and personal punt protector doesn't figure to be on the move. Tebow's role will likely remain limited.

Tim Tebow didn't attempt a pass in the Jets' Week 7 loss to the Patriots, and rushed only four times for 12 yards.
Three of Tebow's four carries came in the red zone, but only one near the goal-line. He rushed for three yards on 3rd-and-2 from the Patriots' four-yard line, earning a first down. With Mark Sanchez throwing for a season-high 328 yards this afternoon, Tebow's role should remain limited against the Dolphins in Week 8.

"Several team sources" tell ESPN New York they "didn't see" Tim Tebow take reps at running back this week.
Tebow hinted Friday the Jets aren't planning to have him line up in the backfield. "I practiced, carrying the ball a few times," Tebow said. "If running back is carrying the ball, then sure." Our guess is that Tebow will be in for an uptick in carries against the Patriots, but that most, if not all, of them will come from his usual formation. Tebow isn't a viable Week 7 fantasy option.
