FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Darrelle Revis says Tim Tebow is a “born leader” who shows passion in everything he does — even when the New York Jets backup quarterback is “eating lunch.”

The All-Pro cornerback has been impressed with how Tebow has fit right in with his new teammates after being acquired from Denver in March. Revis says he has noticed that Tebow has “the gift” of being able to lead and does so by example all the time.

Revis adds that Tebow has the “it” factor and teammates see his passion “all the time … eating lunch.”

Talk about food for thought. But how does he show passion in his eating?

“He’s just into stuff,” a smiling Revis said. “I’m like, ‘All right buddy, we’re not competing.'”
