The ad was purchased by Focus on the Family, a conservative group that stresses marriage and parenthood.
The ad's theme will be “Celebrate Family, Celebrate Life,” according to the Associated Press. Tebow's mother, Pam Tebow, shares the story of her difficult 1987 pregnancy. Instead of getting an abortion she decided to give birth to Tebow.
"I don't think it's anything that's negative or anything like that," Tebow said Wednesday after the South team's practice at the Senior Bowl.
Some contend that the Super Bowl should not be used for political agendas.
"It's a good time and place," Tebow said. "There are a lot of people watching. It's a great opportunity to share a very happy and special story about my mom fighting for me. There are a lot of great things in that."
