The Mets added a new item to their team store on Monday. It’s Matt Reynolds’s No. 15 jersey with the name “Tebow” on the back and can be yours for the low, low price of $119.99. And shipping is free!

Monday is the first day that ESPN college football broadcaster Tim Tebow is practicing with the Mets. According to ESPN’s Darren Rovell, Tebow signed a licensing agreement with the Mets that allows them to sell merchandise with his name on it without him being on the 40-man roster.

The Tebow jerseys are already selling like hot cakes.

According to @Fanatics web site, Tim Tebow has the #Mets 3rd most popular jersey behind Syndergaard and the insert custom name here option

Between this and his apparel deal, Tebow has found multiple ways to profit off of playing baseball without actually having played a game in more than 10 years. He’s an evil genius.
