He wasn't cancelled for praying. In fact players from other teams would join him in prayer.
He was just more of a runningback that had terrible accuracy and didn't want to play anything other than QB when he was not a professional level quarterback.
When he went to the Jets, the lousy coach essentially NEVER let him play! (I think he was in for a paltry handful an entire season) He was lousy as a conventional NFL QB, but if used in the right plays, it could have been a very difficult offense to defend against. Regular QB under center, Tebow as halfback who could either run or throw!
Tim had a near identical skill set to former TN Titans QB Steve Mc Nair, who was a three time Pro Bowler and 2003 Co League MVP with Peyton Manning.
If Tim had been a homosexual instead of a Christian, he would today be starting QB or first backup for any team in the League. He earned that on the field. He was rewarded with nearly not another touch of a football in the NFL.
Mark Sanchez eliminated Tom Brady's Patriots and Peyton Manning's Colts in the same playoff year. Where'd his career end up? Tebow was great in college, but most great collefe QBs still fail in the NFL.
Throwing windows are too tight and the game moves way too fast. Tebow was good to run it because he was built like an RB but his accuracy was not good.
I do recognize that a lot of teams didn't want to touch him because "the circus" that followed. Between the media and Tebow fans that loved him as a person (Christians I guess).
But every game just as Kaepernick created a kneeling movement, Tebow created a prayer movement where before every game, a big circle of players from both teams, of all races, would get together and pray in unison.
People can be moved for bad and good, but while that may have been a factor, he was not a good quarterback in a pass-heavy league where mobile QBs who succeed can also gun it like Lamar Jackson, recently Michael Vick, the Chiefs QB whom I can't remember.
Throwing is key, mobility is a huge plus. But if you can't throw, defenses will throw blitzes. You have to keep them guessimg so that they put a spy on you which opens up another WR/TE that isn't covered.
He was cancelled for praying, I'd say it's very likely he his!

Everything you said may be true, but the NFL culture and media machine haaaaated him for being an unabashed Christian.

I should have said "not the greatest as a conventional QB"; he certainly wasn't lousy!
Ask the Steelers how accurate he was in that 316 playoff game...
