Seahawks consider cutting Jalen Milroe after poor preseason performance

Summary

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Jalen Milroe has faced scrutiny following a disappointing outing in Week 2 of the preseason. Milroe completed 6 of 11 passes for 52 yards but threw two interceptions and rushed for 16 yards. Analysts suggest Seattle should part ways with Milroe after his consistency issues continued into his second preseason. With potential roster adjustments due to injuries in the secondary, the Seahawks may have to evaluate Milroe's future as a backup quarterback. A further assessment during the upcoming preseason finale may determine his standing with the team.
