Reese's Senior Bowl Releases Joe Milton III's Measurements

Former Tennessee Volunteers quarterback Joe Milton III has measured in for the Reese's Senior Bowl as the week gets underway.

Former Tennessee quarterback Joe Milton III will head on to the NFL Draft this offseason, a process that should be very interesting for him. He locked in a trip to the Reese's Senior Bowl in Mobile, Alabama, early in the process and has measured in at the event. 

Milton is the second consecutive quarterback to accept an invitation to the Reese's Senior Bowl under head coach Josh Heupel at Tennessee - previous starting quarterback Hendon Hooker attended and went through interviews with teams even though he wasn't medically cleared to participate in on-field activities. The Detroit Lions selected Hooker with the No. 68 overall pick in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft.

Draft experts have labeled Milton as a day-three pick, but he's bound to impress at the NFL Combine. It'll be interesting to watch him go through the process, as the athletic upside has always been there, and if we know anything about NFL evaluators, it's that they love tools. Milton had a successful final season on Rocky Top and is now on his way to the professional level.
