The New England Patriots signed Tim Tebow on Tuesday, the team announced.

Terms of the contract were not disclosed, but league sources told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter that Tebow signed a two-year contract that includes no guaranteed money.

"Tim is a talented player, is smart and works hard. We'll see how it goes," Patriots coach Bill Belichick said Tuesday.

Tebow is wearing Jersey No. 5 at the team's mandatory minicamp, according to the roster distributed to the media by the Patriots. He has worn No. 15 in his first three NFL seasons but that number belongs to backup quarterback Ryan Mallett.

Tebow was signed to be a quarterback on the Patriots' roster, sources told ESPN NFL Insider Ed Werder.

When asked what position Tebow will play, Belichick said, "we will see."

Apparently tired of the Tebow questions, the coach tried to change the subject after several minutes.

"We've already talked enough about him. We'll see how it goes, take it from there," he said.

Former NFL quarterback Chris Weinke, who has been working with Tebow over the past month to tweak his throwing mechanics, told USA Today Sports that he believes Tebow can play quarterback in the NFL.

"Like I told Tim when I found out [Monday] that he signed, 'You're locked and loaded, ready to go,' " he told the newspaper.

The move reunites Tebow with Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, who was the Broncos' head coach when Denver traded into the first round to draft the Heisman Trophy winner in 2010.

Belichick often has spoken with admiration of Tebow's versatility, intelligence and character. Belichick covets what he has described as tough, smart, versatile football players.

Last month, Yahoo! Sports cited an "organizational source" as saying Belichick disliked Tebow as a player and there was "no chance" of him landing in New England. Belichick dismissed that notion last week, telling ESPNBoston.com that the report was completely untrue.
