Social Media Reacts to Double Standard as Tim Tebow Returns to the NFL While Colin Kaepernick Remains Blackballed (Image: Twitter) It’s was recently announced that former quarterback Tim Tebow will return to the NFL after being out of the league and playing another sport for the past several years. Not only is the former player returning after not having much success as a quarterback, but he is also being brought back in a position that he has never played in high school, college, or as a professional in the NFL. Social media has definitely noticed the ironic gesture of another former quarterback who has been a success in the league, even taking his team to the Super Bowl, yet, he hasn’t been offered a chance or has had any serious negotiations about returning to a sport he truly loves.
