Tim Tebow, former NFL quarterback and all-around ambassador for how to live one’s life as a Christian, said the idea of running for political office in the near future is one that he finds interesting.
Tebow was interviewed by Ainsley Earhardt of Fox & Friends, who attended the annual Tim Tebow Foundation Celebrity Golf Classic in Florida.
When asked if he’d ever be interested in going into politics, Tebow said he finds the possibility “intriguing” before adding “If there’s a chance you can make a difference some day in something.”

Could Tim Tebow make a scramble for the political arena if he can’t get a gig in an NFL stadium?
The answer is yes. Well, maybe. Actually, it’s unclear. But the Broncos and Jets quarterback certainly left the door open for a career change when asked about a possible future in politics on Tuesday.
“I don’t know at this time in my life … if there’s a chance to make a difference someday at something, that’s intriguing,” Tebow told Ainsley Earhardt of Fox & Friends.Tebow is still just 28 years old, certainly on the younger side for an elevated seat in public office. That said, the man remains a legendary figure in his native Florida and with the right campaign manager and the proper grooming, who’s to say Tebowmania couldn’t run wild in the political sector?
It should be noted that Tebow, despite all of the flak he’s received from being a high-profile athlete who openly displays his Christian beliefs, has already made a difference in many people’s lives.
- Despite being but by the Philadelphia Eagles in 2015, Tebow showed his determination by responding with a powerful biblical quote.
- He was willing to autograph a Bible for one of his fans, something you’ll rarely ever see in pro sports.
- He opened a hospital in the Phillipines that specializes in treating children with orthopedic conditions.
- And his foundation set up an annual prom designed to give thousands of people with special needs the time of their life.
Tim Tebow has spent his career setting the example for what real Christians act like. Charity, and giving to those less fortunate, are conservative values. Values that the world of politics needs badly.
