The New England Patriots selected University of Tennessee quarterback Joe Milton III in the sixth round of the NFL draft, adding depth to their roster. Milton expressed gratitude for the opportunity and is focused on competing for a spot on the team.

With five quarterbacks now on the roster, including veteran Jacoby Brissett and 2022 fourth-round pick Bailey Zappe, there will be healthy competition for the starting role. Milton's journey from Michigan to Tennessee has been marked by ups and downs, culminating in this exciting new chapter with the Patriots.
