Jalen Milroe is a talented quarterback and player that Alabama fans want to see have opportunities in the fall.

He arrived as a four-star dual-threat in the 2021 signing class from Katy, Texas. Milroe is a gifted athlete, but he did something Sunday to show his faith in Christ. He got baptized, and Coach Stanfield of Texas posted a video on Twitter.

Milroe tossed a touchdown pass to receiver Javon Baker in 2021 during Alabama’s matchup against Southern Mississippi.

He needs to be used more in an offensive package, and Bill O’Brien has to put it together. Milroe is on a mission to be a good quarterback, but getting baptized means there is a bigger purpose for him.
