New England Patriots quarterback Tim Tebow has insisted that he is not focusing on the possibility of losing his spot on the roster.

Tebow was named behind Tom Brady and Ryan Mallett as the Patriots' number three quarterback in their depth chart this season, creating question marks over his future due to the franchise's need to cut their roster from 84 to 53 by August 31.

However, Tebow insists that he is solely focused on improving his game and is not concerned about whether or not he will be playing in the NFL next season.

"I just focus on one day at a time and improving in practice. I'm just worried about improving every single day and having fun out there at practice," Tebow told reporters.

Tebow has played in both of the Patriots' pre-season matches during their warm-up campaign, completing five of 19 passes for 54 yards.
