Tim Tebow Eagles Jersey Among Highest Selling NFL Jerseys
By Ray Boyd
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- As we wait for the start of Eagles camp, it is time to start grabbing a jersey or two to wear this season. The Eagles have a lot of new players to choose from to replace a jersey you might own of a player that has departed.
One jersey that is flying off the shelves for Birds fans, is the Tim Tebow jersey. That's right...Tebow.
Tebow's Eagles jersey was the 16th highest selling NFL jersey in the league during the month of June.
More Tebow jerseys sold than any other back up quarterback and more than a good amount of starting quarterbacks as well. The only signal callers to move more jerseys than Tebow were Marcus Mariota, Tom Brady, Colin Kaepernick, Aaron Rodgers, Russell Wilson, Jameis Winston, Peyton Manning, Andrew Luck and Derek Carr.
Clearly Tebow beat out his fellow Eagles quarterbacks in Sam Bradford, Mark Sanchez and Matt Barkley and it still remains to be seen whether he'll beat one of them out to earn a roster spot.
Tebow wasn't the only Eagles player flying high on the sales list. The team's new running back DeMarco Murray topped the running backs list as he beat out Marshawn Lynch, Melvin Gordon, LeSean McCoy and Jamaal Charles.
Murray ranked 9th in sales among all players.
