Tim Tebow is reportedly ready to move on from the NFL and will "almost certainly" be a college football analyst on TV next year.  The ex-Patriot is deciding between CBS Sports, Fox Sports and ESPN's SEC Network, according to TheBigLead.com.

Tebow has realized his NFL career is over and is weighing his options between the three networks, which are in a bidding war for the ex-Gator's services.  Each network is trying to lure Tebow with a different approach. 

ESPN reportedly intends to create a version of "College Gameday" where Tebow would provide color commentary.  ESPN also believes having Tebow as an analyst would help the new network, which is set to debut on Aug. 21, 2014, get picked up by cable providers.

CBS Sports is also expected to make a strong push for Tebow and is willing to restructure its entire pregame show to accommodate the former Heisman winner.  CBS broadcasts the most anticipated SEC games every Saturday and figures its already-great ratings will only improve with the addition of Tebow.

Fox is trying to lure Tebow with a role that involves both the NFL and college football.

Tebow, released by the New England Patriots in August, hasn't received any NFL offers.  The quarterback has long stood by his goal of remaining in the NFL and has continued working out with private coaches.  This latest report, however, indicates Tebow is ready to concede his NFL career is finished.

Speculation began in November about Tebow taking a TV job after he hired renowned broadcast agent Nick Khan of Creative Artists Agency.  Tebow is also represented by Jimmy Sexton.

Sources tell TheBigLead the bidding war will intensify in January once the college football season concludes.
