Jalen Milroe officially signed his rookie contract with the Seattle Seahawks on Tuesday, joining college teammate Robbie Ouzts, who signed with the team last week.

"It's definitely a great feeling," Milroe told the team website. "To be able to have an organization that's behind you—they selected me out of all the individuals that were placed in the draft, I was one of their selections in this year's draft. So I'm tremendously happy that I have the support of the organization."

Milroe was drafted in the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft with the 92nd overall pick. He and Ouzts are two of 11 2025 Seahawks draftees.

On This Day in Crimson Tide History:

  • May 21, 1960: Former Alabama two-sport star Charley Boswell was featured on the NBC Show “This is Your Life” hosted by Ralph Edwards. Among those on hand to help Boswell remember his moments growing up in Ensley, his athletic days at Alabama and his World War II hero days, were famous entertainer Bob Hope. The once Crimson Tide halfback and baseball player was blinded by a German artillery shell that exploded after he pulled a crew member from a tank during World War II. Boswell, who subsequently took up golf and won 28 national and international titles for blind golfers, donated his money from the show to his favorite charity, "The Alabama Sight Conservation Association." — Bryant Museum

Crimson Tide Quote of the Day:

"I've often said that it took a lot of courage to go back into that tank and get that soldier. But all of the things he did after losing his sight, they took real courage."Alston Callahan on Charley Boswell
