Jeremy Lin Excited by the Tim Tebow Signing

Mar 22, 2012 11:14 PM EDT

Even if some members of the Jets aren't thrilled about Tebowmania, there is at least one New York sports star who is.

New York Knicks point guard Jeremy Lin is very happy to see someone he considers an inspiration come to New York.

"I'm just excited for him and to see what he does and see what happens next year. ... I'm excited he's going to be in New York," Lin said on Wednesday night. 

Lin, is also a devout Christian, although somewhat less outspoken about it than Tebow has been. But he called Tebow's faith an inspiration despite the fact that the pair has only met one time.

Perhaps Linsanity will make its way to MetLife Stadium this fall if Lin becomes a Jet fan.
