Tim Tebow has yet to clinch the starting role for the New York Jets, but he's already landed the starring role as the New York Jets most popular personality.
What other NFL backup quarterback has gotten a press conference to welcome him to a new team? And now, Tim Tebow has his own New York deli sandwich at the famous Manhattan Carnegie Deli.
The sandwich is called the "Jet Bow" and uses white bread and mayonnaise instead of rye bread and mustard on the corned beef, roast beef and pastrami sandwich for Tim Tebow's all-American appeal.
"Seventy-five years, we've always made sandwiches on rye bread," said Carnegie's Sandy Levine, via CBS. "This time, we put it on white bread and we used mayonnaise, not mustard. This is sacrosanct in delis, but we realize who Tim Tebow is. He's an outstanding citizen. He's the all-American boy."
No word yet what's on the menu for Eli Manning and Mark Sanchez. Should Sanchez be worried?
