Brunell, 41, was drafted by the Packers in 1993 before thriving for the Jaguars for nine seasons. He also played for the Redskins, Saints and Jets. After getting a Super Bowl ring in New Orleans, Brunell played the role of backup and mentor to Mark Sanchez for two seasons. ... Brunell, a free agent, won't be back with the Jets, but believes that his former team can excel with Sanchez and recently acquired quarterback Tim Tebow. "Tim and Mark are going to work well together," Brunell said. "I think they complement each other very well. Tim is going to be a great teammate. You can't have enough Tim Tebows on your roster."
