Alabama Crimson Tide quarterback Jalen Milroe is one of the big names in college football featured in the wider deluxe cover of the popular EA Sports College Football 25 game. The Alabama quarterback has a 90 overall rating in the game with 91 speed, 89 jumping, 75 strength, 93 acceleration and 92 awareness. These rank him as the No. 5 college football quarterback and No. 71 overall in the game.
Not everyone was too stoked to play with Milroe in the game. In a video posted on X, popular gamer and streamer 'Janky Rondo' was playing with Alabama against Florida State and got frustrated with the quarterback's performance.
The clip was captioned:
"I CANNOT STAND JALEN MILROE."
"There's a quarterback in the game that run like Michael Vick, his name is Jalen Milroe. That guy is taking years off my life and I really just wanna end it right now," the streamer said.
Jalen Milroe hosts College Football 25 community event
Jalen Milroe collaborated with The Lab Sports Performance Training Organization to host a community launch party when the game was released on Jul. 19 with disadvantaged kids given the chance to play against the quarterback for a chance to win a copy of the game. The windfall from the event was then donated to the Ivy Foundation, which supports the youth in Tuscaloosa.
He explained to reporters why the event was so important to him and what he hoped to accomplish by hosting it.
"It's all about giving back to the kids," Milroe said. "Having an opportunity to be around more people and then also to build in the community of Tuscaloosa. It's been awesome. Just to have the game of football, the game of football is a beautiful vehicle to meet a lot of people, and I was able to do that today."
Jalen Milroe bought his first PlayStation 5 just to play the popular game. During his watch party, he mentioned how anticipated the game had been in football circles as well.
"I think it's pretty cool because now I have my first PS5 and I have video games, this is my first time having one," Milroe said. "Now, to have the opportunity to play CFB 25 is really fun, especially playing with a lot of people.
"We've been waiting for so long to have the game. It's awesome to have our own roster and players, it's really cool. It's pretty cool. I'm just glad to be in the game. I've been waiting for a long time to be a part of the game. I didn't even know (I am a 90 overall)."
With the Crimson Tide undergoing a monumental change in eras from Nick Saban to Kalen DeBoer, Jalen Milroe will get the chance to show that he is the best quarterback in college football in a pass-heavy offense.
