Dating back to last year, you couldn’t ask for a better relationship between your starting quarterback and backup. Hendon Hooker ended up taking Joe Milton’s job back in 2021, but Milton stuck around and went to work. The result ended up being a lasting friendship, as Hooker did everything he could to elevate Milton’s game.
Now with Hooker out of the picture, it seems like Milton is going to try and continue that tradition. Milton has just one season left, meaning Iamaleava is getting the keys to the car in 2024. For now though, Iamaleava has to be ready to roll as the backup — just as Joe was a year ago.
