So much for LeSean McCoy's "Chip Kelly doesn't like star players" claim.
The Eagles head coach is bringing aboard one of the most famous—and polarizing—players in the entire NFL: Tim Tebow.
Tebow tried out for the Eagles last month, but there were no indications at the time that Philadelphia was actually going to sign him to a roster sport. Kelly's mind seems to have, changed however. The Eagles now have a quarterback depth chart of Sam Bradford, Mark Sanchez, and Tebow, and they've also been linked to Johnny Manziel and Marcus Mariota in certain reports as well.
Twitter, naturally, went gaga when Jay Glazer first announced the news.

Tebow move makes perfect sense: Use him as trade bait to get the No. 1 pick & Mariota. Probably don't even have to include anything else. — Sheil Kapadia (@SheilKapadia) April 19, 2015
@JayGlazer if you could try to break news BEFORE we tape @GarbageTime from now on that'd be much appreciated thanks
