New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick has refuted rumours that he "hates" Tim Tebow as a player, but admitted that he is unlikely to join the franchise.
Belichick slammed last month's reports as "irresponsible" and was keen to state his belief that all free agents have strengths and weaknesses.
"I wouldn't get into the probability of us pursuing any free agent," ESPN quotes Belichick as saying.
"Every single player has strengths and weaknesses but regardless of that, for anyone to have represented that is the way I feel about Tim Tebow is completely untrue, baseless and irresponsible.
"It is unfortunate that something so inaccurate was reported."
Tebow made 12 appearances last season for the New York Jets, but did not make a start before being released.
