The dog was named after the Denver Broncos, the team that selected Tebow in the first round of the 2010 NFL Draft.
On Thursday, Tebow posted online a photo of him kneeling in front of Bronco’s grave: “Im so thankful and humbled by everyone’s support, prayers and love. I was able to lay Bronco to rest in a really special place. Thank you all for so much encouragement. I love you Bronco, thanks for being the sweetest boy.”

Tebow has spent three full seasons in the New York Mets organization. The last two seasons had been derailed by injuries, but his inability to make the team’s major league roster appeared to have put the organization’s experiment with the two-sport athlete in question.
Mets general manager Brodie Van Wagenen said he expects Tebow to start spring training on time in 2020.
