MIAMI, Jan 2 (Reuters) - Florida Gators quarterback Tim Tebow, the 2007 Heisman Trophy winner, has filed papers with the NFL ahead of this year's draft.
Tebow, who is in Miami for next week's BCS national championship game against the Oklahoma Sooners, is in his third year at the University of Florida and has not yet made clear whether he will leave a year early to enter the draft.
The powerfully-built Tebow previously indicated that filing the papers was a first step to finding out where he would stand in the draft.
"It's filed. I feel good, but I'm not worried about it I'm excited to be here in Miami and I'm ready to go play the Sooners," he said.
Tebow holds the Gator's record for rushing touchdowns, was this year's Southeastern Conference offensive player of the year. (Reporting by Simon Evans in Miami; Editing by Peter Rutherford)
