Not too many NFL washouts star in Super Bowl commercials. But few NFL washouts are Tim Tebow.
T-Mobile plays on Tebow's unsigned status in the league with big game ads that feature the still popular quarterback tackling Big Foot, riding a bull, saving the planet and performing several other deeds -- all of which the athlete says he's able to accomplish because he isn't tied up with a contract.
"Bottom line, contracts hold you back," Tebow declares, leading to T-Mobile's promise that it will pay the breakup fees of those who switch to the provider.
If Tebow threw a football as well as he pitched a product, perhaps he would have an NFL contract.
