Denver Broncos: Why Tim Tebow's Jersey Sales Will Continue to Plummet

Rocking the Tim Tebow jersey isn't cool anymore.

Tebow's jersey sales plummeted from inside the top 10 to No. 24, according to CBS Sports. Soon, Tebow jerseys will be seen as a more worthless fad in Denver than pet rocks.

When Tebow first got drafted, it was clear he was going to be the future of the franchise. Josh McDaniels took him in the first round, and fans were quick to buy in.

Tebow's character is infectious. He's one of the best humans in the NFL and the sort of guy every father dreams their son will grow up to be like and their daughters will marry.

He's also a winner and a fiery competitor, making him impossible not to root for.

It's clear why Tebow's jersey sales were through the roof. It's also clear why they aren't now.

Tebow's future in Denver is uncertain. There is a solid chance that if you are buying a Tebow jersey, you are either buying a backup quarterback jersey or the jersey of a quarterback who won't be on the team in the near future.

He no longer has a guy in the front office pulling for him. John Elway and John Fox didn't bring him in, and it's safe to say Elway isn't going to hesitate if he sees a potential franchise quarterback in the draft.

Elway didn't shy away from Blaine Gabbert's pro day last season, and Tebow's future as the starting quarterback in Denver isn't even close to safe.

Not many people want to buy a jersey for a guy who isn't on the field. Tebow entered the wrong situation, and it's a shame.

He's a guy everyone wants to see succeed. His leadership and character traits are unparalleled.

The work ethic and desire are there, and he would be a great face of the NFL. Unfortunately, fans can't buy his Denver Broncos jersey with confidence that they are buying relevant apparel.
