Action News in Jacksonville first broke the story, according to their sources, and they are currently working to confirm it.
What would it take to get Tebow in Jacksonville? Well, I'm thinking the Jaguars will put up whatever they have to if they really involved in a possible trade. Jaguars owner Shad Khan has said publicly that he would have drafted Tebow if the opportunity was there, but the Denver Broncos beat him to the punch.

Gabbert has only thrown 3 interceptions, but the Jaguars feel that his 7 TDs are not enough in the high powered passing game of the NFL today, and I agree with them.
Tebow would also add to the run element of the Jaguars, who are in the bottom third of the NFL running the ball.
The trade deadline was scheduled to end Tuesday at 4:00PM, but hurricane Sandy forced several teams to shut down operations. The league offices also closed due to the weather, so the trade deadline was pushed back to Thursday at 4:00PM so that any trade paperwork could be finalized.
You can bet I'll be keeping an eye on this one as it develops.
