The 27-year old hasn't been able to play the MUT 24 Coins game as a quarterback since however, after he was traded to the New York Jets in 2012 and then signed by the New England Patriots in 2013.

Interestingly, it seemed like Tebow outplayed Barkley throughout the preseason in order to secure a spot on the roster. In the team's final preseason game, Tebow and Barkley split the reps and it was Tebow who did more than Barkley with his reps. Barkley competed 4 of 9 passes for 45 yards with an interception. Tebow completed 11 of 17 passes for 189 yards with two touchdowns along with an interception. He also added 32 yards of rushing.

When Tebow joined the Eagles The team welcomed him with the fanfare associated with everything the quarterback does. His jersey immediately became one of the Madden NFL 24's most popular items and Tebow-themed pretzels were sold in Philadelphia.

Injuries and attrition through the season will always ensure that a team might come knocking and offer Tebow the chance to prove himself again, but currently it appears as though Tebow's buy Madden NFL 24 Coins dream is likely to be put back on the table. Instead, he'll likely return back to his role as an analyst for ESPN where he was able to make quite an impression in 2014.
