Steelers Meet Alabama QB Jalen Milroe Ahead of Pro Day

The Pittsburgh Steelers are focusing on quarterback prospects ahead of the NFL draft, particularly Alabama's Jalen Milroe, who dined with head coach Mike Tomlin, general manager Omar Khan, and quarterbacks coach Tom Arth ahead of his Pro Day. Milroe, noted for his mobility and dual-threat capabilities, had a mixed college career with 6,016 passing yards and 33 rushing touchdowns. While the Steelers are exploring options, including the possibility of signing veteran Aaron Rodgers, they recognize the need for a long-term solution at quarterback. Reports suggest that Milroe's draft stock is volatile, as he is seen as a significant developmental project despite his physical talent. The Steelers, holding the 21st pick, may consider selecting Milroe, who could be among the second tier of quarterback prospects in the upcoming draft. However, previous assessments indicate the team may have reservations about his readiness for the NFL.
