GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Florida quarterback Tim Tebow has returned to practice on a limited basis, though he still has not been cleared to play in Saturday’s game against No. 4 LSU.
Tebow was in full pads Tuesday and wearing a red non-contact jersey, which is normal for a quarterback. He was taking snaps with the first-team offense and throwing passes.
“He didn’t go full, and it was obviously non-contact,” Meyer said following Tuesday’s practice. “I’d say he did probably 80 percent of practice. He did well. A little rusty, not really from anything other than that he hasn’t played football in over a week.”
The Heisman Trophy winner suffered a concussion in Florida’s last game against Kentucky on Sept. 26 when his head slammed into a teammates knee after he took a hard hit to the chest.
He spent the night in a Lexington, Ky., hospital and has not practiced since.
The Gators were off last week.
