Whispers filtered out of Florham Park earlier Monday that Tim Tebow might see a larger role against the Houston Texans.
ESPN New York's Rich Cimini is on hand at MetLife Stadium and believes the Jets' backup quarterback is warming up for something big.
Tebow spending extra time throwing with QBs coach Matt Cavanaugh. Hmm

This isn't just a routine game of catch. Cavanaugh moving to different spots on field to catch Tebow passes.

Tebow is throwing with a purpose. I've never seen him take this many in pre-game warmups. Working on footwork and quick drops.

If Tebow played for Girardi, he'd be out by now because he's over 100 pitches. #TebowTimeComing

We're less than 30 minutes away from kickoff, but it sounds as though Rex Ryan already has set his watch to Tebow Time.
