Hurts and Milroe are both from Texas and former four-star recruits. Milroe has displayed respect for Hurts on multiple occasions, including after Alabama defeated Georgia during the 2024 season.
“Jalen Hurts is a great person to look at when it comes to handling adversity when it comes to playing the position,” Milroe said. “I’m a Texas kid. He’s a Texas kid, and he was one of the reasons why I came to University of Alabama. If we look back when Alabama played Georgia, then he stepped into the game. So, I wanted to represent him today. If he’s out there watching, Hey, Jalen Hurts. I love Jalen Hurts. I think he’s a great quarterback, and I just wanna represent him today.”
Milroe will look to be just as impactful as Hurts in the NFL with the Seahawks.
