April 26, 2025 – Detroit, MI — The Seattle Seahawks made a bold move on Day 2 of the 2025 NFL Draft, selecting Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe with the No. 90 overall pick. Known for his dynamic playmaking ability and dual-threat talent, Milroe becomes a new face in Seattle’s quarterback room, signaling an exciting future for the franchise.

Milroe, who started two seasons for the Crimson Tide, electrified college football with his cannon arm, lightning-fast legs, and natural leadership. In 2024, he threw for over 3,200 yards and 28 touchdowns, while adding another 700 yards and 10 scores on the ground, helping Alabama to a College Football Playoff berth. His blend of athleticism, toughness, and constant growth as a passer caught the attention of Seahawks scouts throughout the pre-draft process.

“We’re thrilled to bring Jalen to Seattle,” said head coach Mike Macdonald. “He’s an incredible competitor with the kind of high ceiling we love to develop. His leadership, work ethic, and explosive ability will fit perfectly with what we’re building.”

While Milroe may not be expected to start immediately, Seattle sees him as a long-term investment. With veteran quarterbacks already on the roster, the Seahawks can afford to give Milroe time to learn, refine his mechanics, and adjust to NFL speed. Analysts view him as a potential game-changer once he polishes his decision-making and pocket presence.

Jalen Milroe’s selection continues Seattle’s trend of betting on elite athleticism and upside. Fans can expect to see Milroe competing hard in training camp and perhaps carving out early roles in specialized packages that take advantage of his unique skill set.

For now, Seahawks Nation welcomes a rising star whose future in the Pacific Northwest looks very, very bright.
