Chip Kelly: 'New quarterback Tim Tebow is improving'

New Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Tim Tebow is getting better in training ahead of his first NFL season in two years, says coach Chip Kelly.

Philadelphia Eagles coach Chip Kelly has heaped praise on new quarterback Tim Tebow for his form in training camp.

Tebow joined the Eagles on a one-year contract after a two-season break, although he is not expected to feature too heavily at the beginning of the season.

However, Kelly told the Delaware County Times: "I have seen an improvement from Tim since the day we got him in terms of his knowledge of what we're doing, understanding where everybody is. There's a whole process, and for him what we have done is different than what he's done anywhere else.

"So in terms of learning our terminology and how we do things, I think each week you've seen an incremental bump in him, so we're excited to see where that takes him and it'll be a good competition as we get into August."

Tebow spent two seasons with the Denver Broncos, a year with the New York Jets and a year with the New England Patriots, who released him in 2013.
