SEC Network analyst and former Florida quarterback is being praised on social media for his actions during a Delta passenger’s medical emergency on a recent flight from Atlanta to Phoenix.
According to various passenger stories, Tebow left his first-class seat when he heard a commotion coming from the back of the plane when one passenger appeared to be having a heart attack. Tebow moved to sit with the family and pray with them while the flight crew attended to the man. The crew was finally able to get a pulse when the plane landed in Phoenix, but Tebow was not done helping. He volunteered to help the family deplane and take the man’s wife to the hospital.

We’re certainly not surprised that Tebow, who has not posted or commented on the matter, went above and beyond to offer his help in an emergency situation.
