In any event none of that makes injury less of a concern.
No, re-read the original post. They intend to use him in the PP role but they are considering having him on kick coverage.
First of all, let's make sure that money is not a concern.
The point I wanted to make is that an owner of an NFL franchise in the biggest city in the US knows how to use publicity to make money (it doesn't have to be football-related).
Let's agree to concentrate on the true concern, which is injury.
It's a concern for a first or second round QB a team draft to be a franchise QB.
It's a concern for a FA they acquired (who has true QB skills, but just not good enough to be a full-time starter - and these guys cost more money than they usually can generate; even the better ones.)
A fourth rounder is not anything you need to protect, especially when "the thinking" is that money is not the concern.
The value in such a "pick" is how to maximize the use to help the team win; to give the team any edge for a better chance to win a game.
Most people don't think Tebow is a good QB to begin with; if the Jets have to rely on Tebow to come in at QB to win games for them, they're back to square one.
For the detractors, Tebow is not good enough to win games, let alone advancing a team through the play-offs (if for any reason Sanchez fails).
What then is the use of worrying about Tebow getting hurt?
