BREAKING NEWS: Drama Escalates in Alabama Football With Major Quarterback Issue About Jalen Milroe in NFL and Fierce Competition Brewing Between Ty Simpson and Austin Mack
Tuscaloosa, AL — The Alabama Crimson Tide are no strangers to quarterback controversies, but the latest development has taken the drama to another level. With former starter Jalen Milroe preparing for the NFL and his draft status still a topic of national conversation, the focus in Tuscaloosa has shifted to who will lead Alabama’s offense in 2025.
Head Coach Kalen DeBoer, stepping into big shoes in his first year at Alabama, is now dealing with a heated quarterback battle. Ty Simpson, a talented and highly recruited signal-caller, was expected to be the front-runner for the starting role. However, the rise of Austin Mack—freshman phenom Julian Sayin—has turned spring camp into a full-blown competition.
Sources close to the program say the coaching staff has been “blown away” by Sayin’s poise, accuracy, and understanding of the new offensive system. While Simpson brings more experience, Mack rapid development has turned heads and made it clear that the job is far from guaranteed.
Meanwhile, Jalen Milroe’s NFL journey continues to draw attention. Scouts are reportedly intrigued by his athleticism and deep-ball ability but remain concerned about his consistency in the pocket. His performance during Alabama’s Pro Day has sparked debate among analysts, with projections ranging from a late Day 2 pick to a high-upside Day 3 sleeper.
Back in Tuscaloosa, the Crimson Tide faithful are bracing for what could be one of the most intense quarterback battles in recent memory. With the 2025 season on the horizon, all eyes will be on Simpson and Sayin as they fight to lead a program with national championship expectations.
