Jaguars' Marcedes Lewis not interested in playing with Tebow

By Evan Hilbert | CBSSports.com

Rumors are circulating that current New York Jets quarterback Tim Tebow may be on the trading block. When he left Denver last season, Tebow had a choice between Jacksonville and New York, choosing the latter. On Saturday, Jaguars tight end Marcedes Lewis told TMZ.com he was not interested in playing with Tebow.

When asked by a TMZ "photog" Saturday night, Lewis was direct.

"My honest answer?" he said when asked if he would like Tebow to come to Jacksonville. "No, no. I'm going into my eighth year, I've had about four or five different quarterbacks ... we need a guy that's going to put us over the hump right now -- not a project. Not taking anything away from Tebow, but we need a pure quarterback."

Ouch. Tebow should hang a copy of these remarks in his locker right next to what John Elway said about him last week.
