Chad Henne on Tim Tebow: He’s not an NFL quarterback

Add the Dolphins’ Chad Henne to the growing list of those who don’t think Tim Tebow has what it takes to be an NFL quarterback. Henne, who beat Tebow and the Florida Gators in the 2008 Capital One Bowl in his last college game at Michigan, briefly addressed the issue during an appearance on WQAM-AM on Wednesday. “The only take I have on Tim Tebow is us beating them in the Capital One Bowl,” Henne said when asked about the new throwing motion Tebow unveiled at Florida’s Pro Day earlier in the day. “My judgment is he’s not an NFL quarterback. I’ll leave it at that.” Co-hosts Curtis Stevenson and Anita Marks didn’t ask any follow-up questions, but did get some thoughts from Henne on other subjects during the six-minute interview. Among them: – He wouldn’t take the bait when asked if he wouldn’t love to have Brandon Marshall on his team, at least beyond saying, “If we get a big guy it’s gonna help out. But,” he added, “we’ve also got Pat Turner sitting on the back burner. Let’s see what he does this season.” – He’ll

be marrying longtime girlfriend Brittany Hartman in July. The two have been together for nearly 10 years. – He’s happy to have Chad Pennington back for another season. “I always knew they were going to bring in another veteran person, and what better veteran to have than Chad Pennington? I’ve learned so much from him. It’s just great to compete with him.” – On his first season: “It was definitely a great learning experience. A good start but not great. There’s always room to improve. I looked during the offseason at some film. I had great learning experience.” – On newly signed offensive lineman Richie Incognito: “They’ve researched him and he has the same agent as I do, so I know Richie a little bit. He’s a great guy, and he’s only going to improve our program. Our offensive line is one of best in NFL, so we’ll see.” Henne said he will be on hand when the Dolphins’ voluntary offseason workout program begins Monday at the training facility in Davie.
