Donald Trump should create a buzz in the sports world next week when former NFL quarterback Tim Tebow, along with other popular sports figures, speaks at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland.

Having Tebow’s name on the program, which wasreleased Wednesday, is a relief for Trump after he struck out on many of the professional athletes and A-list celebrities he suggested would be attending the convention and speaking on his behalf. NFL star quarterbacks Tom Brady and Ben Roethlisberger were both rumored to give speeches at the convention, but neither will make an appearance.

Trump will now have to rely on Tebow to make up for those losses. Tebow recently suggested he would consider pursuing politics, with his future in the NFL looking particularly bleak.

“You know, I don’t know in this time in my life, but if there’s a chance you can make a difference some day in something, then that would be intriguing,” Tebow said at his charity golf event in March.
