Yahoo Sports NFL on Joe Milton
From the article
The Eagles have decided to make a change at quarterback and are starting quarterback Joe Milton III. Milton is a massive (6-foot-5, 236-pound), athletic, and strong-armed quarterback. Milton has appeared in five games in 2024 and 2025, but only saw significant action in the Patriots' 2024-2025 Week 18 win over the Buffalo Bills. Milton didn't start, but finished that game 22 of 29 for 241 yards and a touchdown.
STACKED’s take
Milton starts for Eagles after McKee's 0-3 stretch; elite athleticism but accuracy concerns.
Philadelphia Eagles have started Joe Milton III at quarterback after Tanner McKee went 0-3 over the last three games. Milton is a 6-foot-5, 236-pound athletic quarterback with strong arm talent but was heavily knocked for inconsistency and lack of accuracy in college; he completed just 38.6% of his passes beyond 10 yards downfield at Tennessee despite the simplistic offense. He has appeared in five games in 2024-2025 but only saw significant action in the Patriots' Week 18 win over Buffalo (22 of 29, 241 yards, 1 TD). Milton's presence will force the Giants' pass rush to be more disciplined given his powerful running ability and risk of breaking contain.
