PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. (AP) — For sale: Tim Tebow jerseys, by the New York Mets.
There's an array of Tebow apparel being offered through the Mets' website, ranging from $29.99 for T-shirts to $119.99 for a replica big league jersey.
Tebow had his first workout Monday with the Mets' instructional league team. He says he's aware the Mets were planning to sell shirts with his name on the back. Majestic, the uniform provider for Major League Baseball, tweeted an image of the jersey.
The Mets' site said two of the five offered Tebow items were among the current top sellers as of early Monday evening.
Tebow said his appearance at instructional league wasn't a stunt. The 2007 Heisman Trophy winner and former NFL quarterback has a book scheduled to be released next month.
