Tim Tebow Meets 4-year-old Boy with Leukemia at D1

Every time Preston Winslow plays football with his dad, the 4-year-old pretends to be Tim Tebow.

The Denver Broncos quarterback is his favorite player. Just mention Tebow's name and his face lights up.

Preston has acute myeloid leukemia, or AML. Diagnosed in 2010, he stopped responding to treatment last month, his parents said.

In town to host a training event for members of D1, a sports facility he co-owns in north Tampa, Tebow spent some time on an indoor field with Preston.
