With Bears backup QB Caleb Hanie nursing a right shoulder injury, the word out of Chicago is that the search for a backup quarterback is on.

Florida QB Tim Tebow ran in 4.72 seconds, the fourth-best time among the 16 quarterbacks who participated in the 40-yard dash.

Florida QB Tim Tebow elected not to participate in the bench press Saturday at the NFL Scouting Combine after it was previously believed that he would do all non-throwing workouts.

Central Michigan QB Dan LeFevour said Friday that he indeed will throw at the NFL Scouting Combine. It just will be to stationary targets, not moving receivers.

With Tim Tebow not participating in throwing drills at the combine, it means none of the top-rated quarterbacks will be throwing this weekend in front of a league-wide audience.

Browns team president Mike Holmgren thinks the quarterbacks not throwing at the combine are making a mistake.
