Jalen Milroe needs to be used more for Alabama this year and here’s why

Alabama has an interesting race for the backup quarterback job behind Bryce Young.

Jalen Milroe enters his second season on offense. He arrived as a four-star from Texas in the 2021 class. Milroe brings huge athleticism, playmaking abilities, dual-threat capabilities, and is an improved passer. He did not receive many opportunities in his freshman campaign, but Milroe tossed a touchdown pass. He also totaled 15 carries for 57 rushing yards last season.

People are curious to see what five-star Ty Simpson can do. He won the Gatorade Player of the Year in Tennessee and led Westview High School to a state championship.
