The Seahawks of Seattle announced on Tuesday that former Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe had signed his first NFL contract.
On April 25, Milroe was chosen by the Seahawks in the third round of the NFL Draft.
Milroe, who was selected 92nd overall, agreed to a four-year contract worth $6.264 million, which included a $1.196 million signing bonus. The part of the deal that is guaranteed is the signing bonus.
Milroe stated on the NFL team’s official website, “It’s definitely a great feeling.” “They chose me from among all the people who were put in the draft so that you can have an organisation that supports you.” I am extremely grateful to have the organization’s support because I was one of their selections in this year’s draft. However, for the sake of the team and the men in the locker room, we must now present ourselves in the best possible light going forward.

After Milroe rushed for 1,257 yards and 32 touchdowns on 329 rushes and completed 392-of-603 passes for 5,678 yards with 39 touchdowns and 17 interceptions in his two seasons as the Crimson Tide’s main quarterback, Seattle selected him.
Two additional quarterbacks play for the Seahawks. Following the Seahawks’ trade of Geno Smith, their starting quarterback for the previous three seasons, to the Las Vegas Raiders, Sam Darnold and Drew Lock signed with Seattle as free agents this summer.
Darnold signed a three-year, $105.5 million contract that will position him as the starting quarterback in 2025.
