FILE - In this Dec. 2, 2012, file photo, New York Jets head coach Rex Ryan, left, stands with general manager Mike Tannenbaum, center, and owner Woody Johnson before an NFL football game against the Arizona Cardinals in East Rutherford, N.J. Likely done in New York after one frustrating season and Jacksonville already saying no to a happy homecoming, what's next for Tim Tebow? The way recently fired Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum tells it, he and coach Rex Ryan kicked around the idea of bringing Tebow to New York over milkshakes at an airport. Despite already signing Mark Sanchez to a hefty contract extension, they ran it by owner Woody Johnson, who clearly saw a potential marketing touchdown, and offensive coordinator Tony Sparano, a proponent of the wildcat-style system. The Jets had every intention of trying to make Tebow work. But once he got on the field, something went woefully wrong. (AP Photo/Kathy Willens, File)
