Contrary to a reporter from ESPN The Magazine, people in Tim Tebow's camp do not believe the quarterback's NFL career is finished.  A source close to Tebow told USA Today Sports that the 25-year-old isn't giving up on the NFL or planning to play in the Canadian or Arena Football League.

David Fleming of ESPN The Magazine wrote on Thursday that members of Tebow's camp privately admitted, "his NFL run is probably over."  The anonymous source quickly reacted to the article and denied the story, adding that Tebow hasn't yet given up on his NFL career.

"Tebow isn't expected to address the story anytime soon because the person said he's trying to stay off the radar, due in part to the very issue that led to the ESPN The Magazine story — the attention he brings could be seen by some teams as an unnecessary distraction," Mike Garafolo of USA Today Sports wrote.

Tebow has been unemployed since the New York Jets released him on April 29.  Teams have seemingly "blackballed" the quarterback in an attempt to keep the media circus out of their locker rooms.  His throwing mechanics have been criticized, and the only job offers he received were from teams in the Arena and Canadian Football leagues. 

ESPN's article also suggested that Tebow's dyslexia, a learning disability affecting how he reads and processes information, could explain his slow development as a quarterback.  The learning disability might be a hindrance to him learning the playbook, reading defenses and making quick-thinking decisions under center.

With training camp approaching, it appears less and less likely that Tebow will find a team this season.  He remains a free agent.
