Tim Tebow Joining 'Good Morning America' As Contributor

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Tim Tebow is taking the field for "Good Morning America."

ABC said Thursday that the Heisman Trophy winner is joining the program as a contributor starting Monday.

Tebow will be part of the show's new "Motivate Me Monday" segment that highlights people and their stories of triumph. ABC says he'll appear in the studio and from locations across America.

Tebow is an analyst for ESPN and the SEC Network. He led the Denver Broncos to the playoffs in 2012, followed by short stints with the New York Jets and New England Patriots.

When he was hired as a college football analyst for the fledgling SEC Network last year, Tebow said he still hopes to play quarterback in the NFL.
