After losing Brock Osweiler to the Houston Texans, striking out on acquiring Colin Kaepernick and passing on Johnny Manziel, the Denver Broncos cannot go into training camp with just Mark Sanchez and Trevor Siemian at the quarterback position.

They need to get a fierce competitor who knows what it means to wear the orange and blue. Someone who can struggle mightily to hit his receiver on a 15-yard curl route, but has the heart to try that pass time and time again. A quarterback who will force an offensive coordinator to revamp their entire playbook to fit his incredibly specific yet limited skill set. If you haven't guessed it already, we're talking about Tim Tebow!

A couple of Broncos (and obviously, Tebow fans) have started a petition in an effort to convince the team's general manager John Elway to bring Tebowmania back to Denver. Here's an excerpt from their petition: 

The Denver Broncos have lost their two main quarterbacks from their epic 2016 Super Bowl Championship winning season. We need a proven winner to continue to move this team in the right direction. Coach Gary Kubiak's offense would thrive with Tebow under center. He and the legendary John Elway can make this happen. We dont need a subpar throwaway from some other team, we need an original Bronco who has the fire, desire, and love of the game to play as a Bronco again! As a bonus the Bronco fans would be ecstatic! He just wins, we all know this! #TebowTime

The petition is looking for 5,000 supporters. Currently, it has just over 3,000.
