Alabama Crimson Tide's Quarterback, Jalen Milroe, has been named as the starting quarterback for the Tide for the second consecutive season. In the Alabama spring game, he made his debut appearance with 11 passes for 149 yards and a touchdown, having been red-shirted in 2021. Along with an interception, he had eight completions for 76 yards and a touchdown. After Bryce Young was hurt in the fourth week of the season against Arkansas, Milroe substituted briefly against Louisiana Monroe and Vanderbilt before taking over at quarterback. Milroe's touchdown throws helped Alabama win 49-26. A week later, he debuted in his first game of the season against Texas A&M, winning 24-20 with three touchdowns and three turnovers.

In 2023, Alabama's Tyler Buchner and Ty Simpson competed for the quarterback position, after Young left. But Milroe was chosen due to his performance in leading Alabama to a 56-7 victory over Middle Tennessee. However, Tyler Buchner replaced Milroe for the match against USF, but Nick Saban announced that Milroe would continue as the starting quarterback for the rest of the season. This decision was made following Buchner's poor performance against USF.

In a 42-28 victory over LSU, Milroe threw for 219 yards and ran for a career-high 155 yards and four touchdowns. The following week, Alabama defeated Kentucky 49–21 because of a total of six touchdowns by Milroe—three passing and three rushing.
