The New England Patriots are not utilizing Tim Tebow as the personal punt protector in preseason. Nor will the New England Patriots waste an active game day roster spot for Tim Tebow.And I just double-checked as best I could. There was no failed fake punt against the Texans. But the time the Jets played the Patriots, the Jets had succeeded on 3 of 3 faked punts with Tebow running twice and throwing once. It was noted that the Patriots changed their punt defense and essentially defended every punt as if it was a fake.
I'm actually not sure the Jets ever faked one again. I just can't remember. According to his statline, he only had 2 rushes on 4th down for the whole season.
