A local Philadelphia business has created a custom snack as a nod to Tim Tebow's recent decision to sign with the Philadelphia Eagles for the 2015 NFL season.

The Philly Pretzel Factory recently revealed its creation of the "Tebowing Pretzel" as a way to welcome the Christian athlete to the east coast city.

The pretzel shows the silhouette of a football player kneeling in prayer, reflecting the trademark move of Tebow as he would kneel in prayer on the field during an NFL game.

"Our CEO, Dan DiZio, sent our team an email on Sunday night and said that he wanted to do something special for the announcement," Adam Terranova, marketing manager at Philly Pretzel Factory, told The Christian Post of the company's decision to create the "Tebowing Pretzel."

"We all got together and thought the best way to welcome Tim Tebow to Philly would be with homemade pretzels for him, the Eagles, and our entire great city," Terranova added.

The Eagles recently announced their decision to sign Tebow for the 2015 season, saying via Twitter: "Welcome to the City of Brotherly Love, @TimTebow! #FlyEaglesFly."

Tebow has most recently served as an ESPN analyst for the SEC Network. Although Tebow took a brief hiatus from the world of professional football, he repeatedly stated his desire to return to the NFL.

"I will remain in relentless pursuit of continuing my lifelong dream of being an NFL quarterback," Tebow previously shared on social media before being dropped by the New England Patriots ahead of the 2014 season.
