Bleeding Green Nation on Joe Milton
From the article
This will technically be Joe Milton III's first start, though he played all but three snaps of the Jerod Mayo finale in 2024 for the Patriots. Known for his rocket arm and physical attributes, Milton will certainly offer something different for the Eagles.
STACKED’s take
Milton's first start offers arm strength and mobility to reset Eagles offense.
Joe Milton III will make his first NFL start for the Eagles after Tanner McKee went 0-3 as a starter this season. Milton played all but three snaps of the Jerod Mayo finale in 2024 for the Patriots. Known for his rocket arm and physical attributes, Milton offers a different dimension to the Eagles offense with quick release, rare velocity, real downfield ability, and mobility to add to the run game. Teammates praise his arm strength; Jordan Mailata said 'Have you seen his arm? It is a fucking cannon.' The source notes Milton has legitimate talent despite inconsistent accuracy, and his mobility may help him escape pressure, though the Eagles' protection and play design must give him a chance to operate.
