Tebow remains excited

It's Twitter Time again for Tim Tebow.

In his first tweets since being traded to the Jets last week, the popular backup quarterback wrote last night that he's, yep, "excited" to be with his new team and thanked Denver Broncos fans for their support after "an interesting couple of weeks!"

Tebow also poked fun at himself: "I've already said it 44 times so here goes number 45: I'm really excited to be a Jet! Haha!"

Tebow used the word "excited" repeatedly during his 30-minute introductory news conference Monday.

He said he's "anxiously looking forward" to getting to work and vowed to "Fireman Ed and the rest of Jets nation" that he'll play his heart out in New York.
