It is an honor to be the guidon carrier for a unit, known as a guidon bearer or guide. He or she stands in front of the unit alongside of the commander (or the commander's representative), and is the rallying point for troops to fall into formation when the order is given.
THE year 2007 was the year Tim Tebow, currently the Denver Broncos No. 1 quarterback, won all three of the most prestigious collegiate football awards in America: the Heisman Trophy, the Maxwell Award and the Davey O'Brien Award.
During the 2012 offseason, the Broncos traded Tebow to the New York Jets where he received little playing time and was released after the 2012 season ended. He signed a two-year, non-guaranteed contract with the New England Patriots on June 11, 2013, before being cut from the team on August 31, 2013.
