Under "NFL career statistics/Broncos franchise records" please delete from the Sacked bullet: "game (7 on 2011-10-30 DET)". On Oct 17, 2019, Joe Flacco was sacked 8 times by the Kansas City Chiefs. Here is my source: ^[1] Domino Fibonacci (talk) 22:19, 25 May 2021 (UTC)

I've removed the entire section. Checking this Pro Football Reference page and clicking on each record, searching for DEN players, only the yards per pass attempt in a single playoff game franchise record is actually true, but that seems like an over-specific record to include, and is borderline WP:FANCRUFT. ◢  Ganbaruby!  (talk) 05:47, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

In the reference #249 for the article "Tim Tebow", the identical text occurs twice in succession. This looks like someone pasted the reference, then accidentally pasted it again. The "edit" option is not appearing on my page, so I'll leave it to someone else to make this correction. Thanks!

Please change The Tim Tebow Foundation includes Night to Shine, an event geared to providing those with special needs a safe space to have a prom.[255] to

The Tim Tebow Foundation celebrates people with special needs by hosting Night to Shine. In 2014, the Tim Tebow Foundation launched Night to Shine to provide an unforgettable prom experience for people with special needs, ages 14 and older. This prom, hosted by churches worldwide, takes place around Valentine’s Day. In 2015, the first Night to Shine honored 7,000 guests with the help of 15,000 volunteers. This event took place in 44 churches, 26 states, and three countries. In February 2020, Night to Shine honored 110,000 guests with help from 215,000 volunteers. This event took place in 721 churches, 50 states, and 34 countries. In 2021 and 2022, due to the Covid-19 Pandemic, Night to Shine was partially virtual. Guests attended an in-person Shine-Thru Parade where they drove down the red carpet, picked up their guest bags, and got their pictures taken without ever leaving their car. These guests then went home and celebrated a virtual prom hosted by Tim and Demi Tebow. This event included dancing, karaoke, and inspiring messages from celebrities. Guest were all crowned kings and queens of the prom.

Night to Shine is special to Tim Tebow as it was where he first met his wife, Demi. She had a sister with special needs, and they both attended Night to Shine in South Africa. Whether you are in a large city of the United States or a small rural town in Africa, Night to Shine is an event centered on God’s love for people with special needs.

It's also far to much information, and is written in a non-neutral tone. Is this verbatim from a press release? That's not what Wikipedia is for. BilCat (talk) 23:28, 9 March 2022 (UTC)

@Bears247 Not sure why you keep changing the opening sentence to say that Tebow played tight end and removing the mention of his current career in broadcasting. He won a Heisman at QB but never appeared as a tight end in a regular season game at any level, so giving those positions equal weight in the opening sentence is misleading and violates WP:UNDUE. Of course, his brief tryout at TE should be mentioned in the article and (arguably) in the infobox, but not at the very top of the introduction.

Also, saying that he's a "free agent" implies that he's still looking to sign with a team when he's clearly done with playing professionally at this point. He's been working at ESPN / SEC Network for several years, so that career should definitely be mentioned in the lede imo. Zeng8r (talk) 12:43, 27 July 2023 (UTC)

@Zeng8r: I'd have to look for it, but at one point there was a discussion at the NFL WikiProject regarding when to stop labelling a player as a free agent. The end result was a general rule of thumb that players are changed from free agent to former player after a period of 2 years. Technically working a TV job does not mean that a player could not return to professional sports (Jason Witten), though I do recognize that it's unlikely and uncommon. Matt Ryan's article faces a similar issue, in that he's taken a TV job but he's not announced that he's actually retired from football. I believe that's what Bearts247 is working off of in regards to the free agent mention. Hey man im josh (talk) 12:59, 27 July 2023 (UTC)

That's a reasonable guideline. Tebow hasn't played in a regular season NFL game since 2012, his brief training camp tryout with the Jaguars ended two years ago, and in between he spent several years away from the game. Even that was because his former coach (Urban Meyer) had just started his ill-fated tenure in Jax and wanted Tebow in camp to be a good work ethic example. His playing career is clearly done. Zeng8r (talk) 14:13, 27 July 2023 (UTC)

I'm going to get quite busy with real life very soon so I went ahead and re-reverted the first sentence as described above and revamped the rest of the introduction while I was here. Feel free to discuss further as desired... Zeng8r (talk) 13:51, 30 July 2023 (UTC)

Tight end tryout does not meet MOS:ROLEBIO and should not be in the lead sentence.—Bagumba (talk) 04:36, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
