From the article

Jalen Milroe, the current third string quarterback on the team. It seems as though the coaching staff wants him to use his athleticism more; to use his blinding speed to help keep the plays moving. While it seemed as though he was able to do so in practice, he faced challenges in the preseason game versus the Cowboys. In the red zone, he was not able to convert a single touchdown, even when the special teams was able to get them within right in the sweet spot, failing to convert on a fourth and goal, sacked in the pocket.

Third-string quarterback being encouraged by coaching staff to use his athleticism and blinding speed to keep plays moving. Showed promise in practice but struggled in preseason game versus Cowboys, failing to convert any red zone touchdowns including a fourth-and-goal attempt where he was sacked in the pocket. Coaching staff, including Jake Peetz, remained supportive of his development and encouraged him to continue fighting and using his tools.
