He is more focused on having a bounce back performance versus Tennessee, but Jalen Milroe recently landed a name, image, and likeness opportunity with a top collectible company.

The junior quarterback for the University of Alabama signed with Panini, which is the world’s leader in officially licensed collectibles and the leader multi-national publisher of trading cards, stickers, comics, and children’s magazines.
Panini, like Milroe, is based out of Texas. It wanted a homegrown product on a national stage to represent its brand, and who better than Milroe to do it. The 6-foot-2, 225-pounder has 1,483 passing yards, 319 rushing yards, and 23 total touchdowns to four interceptions in six games.
An electric showing versus the Volunteers should put Milroe back high in the Heisman talk.
Game recognizes game, and we couldn’t be more excited to add one of the biggest stars in the game to the Panini Family.
