Through two preseason games, that hasn't really changed. Against the Dallas Cowboys, Seattle's offense struggled, but Lock still looked more comfortable than Milroe. Against the Tennessee Titans, the gap was significantly larger. Milroe had a terrible game, finishing with two interceptions and another sack on fourth down.

Milroe's preseason gap to Lock widening; two INTs and sack vs. Titans raise development concerns

Milroe's preseason development is concerning relative to conservative expectations. The source set a realistic goal for him to close the gap on Drew Lock and make the QB2 competition legitimate, but through two preseason games that hasn't happened. Against Dallas, Lock looked more comfortable; against Tennessee, the gap was significantly larger. Milroe finished with two interceptions and a sack on fourth down, producing very little offensively outside a few runs. The source notes that while two preseason games aren't definitive, Milroe appears behind even adjusted expectations for his development stage.
