Alabama QB Jalen Milroe is a potential top pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. He sparked a stir with his recent comments about Lamar Jackson. When asked about the comparison to the Ravens‘ star, Milroe admitted that Jackson is one of his biggest inspirations. He even confessed to secretly being a Ravens fan, a statement that may raise eyebrows for the Browns fans hoping Milroe could be their future quarterback.
Meanwhile, Milroe’s performance at the Senior Bowl added fuel to the fire. His hand size, measured at 8 3/4 inches, has already raised concerns. No NFL starting quarterback has hands that small. And this could hinder Milroe’s chances of being drafted high. His struggles with ball security this season, including six fumbles, further add to questions about his viability as a franchise quarterback.
