“It is awesome, it is one of the biggest blessings in life,” he said.
When baby Daphne grows up and searches her pops on the internet … we hope she comes across this video, ’cause Tebow also had a special message for her.
“I want her to just know that she is loved and priceless to God,” Tebow said. “She would always know that.”
Of course, being a new parent always comes with challenges … so what’s the toughest thing Tebow has dealt with so far?
“Just trying to do everything to protect her,” he said.

The former NFLer and Miss Universe introduced the world to the new member of their family with a beautiful carousel of photos on Instagram a few months back … saying, “we couldn’t be more grateful for the blessings and gift of this new little life.”
“We’re so grateful to the whole medical team that assisted us in the best way possible during my labor and delivery. From our doctor to our nurses and all the hospital staff — we are so grateful and thankful for you.”
There’s more … we also got Tebow’s take on the head coach opening at his alma mater — the University of Florida — and if an Urban Meyer reunion should be considered.
