Coping with the media cauldron in New York City will be tough enough, but will Tim Tebow have to overcome a bad-luck jersey, too? TMZ reports that friends say receiver Scotty McKnight is happy to surrender the number because he thinks it's cursed. Sure, McKnight spent most of the 2011 on the practice squad and then blew out his knee. On the other hand, he's been dating everyone's favorite regenerative cheerleader, Hayden Panettiere, the whole time he's been wearing it, too.
But maybe the real reason McKnight is happy to palm off the dubious jersey is that he's trying to help out a childhood friend: Tebow's new Jets rival, Mark Sanchez.
