Jalen Milroe beat out Notre Dame transfer Tyler Buchner, Ty Simpson and Dylan Lonergan to start at quarterback for Alabama's opener, sources told ESPN.
While Milroe took most of the first-team repetitions among Alabama quarterbacks this preseason, sources told ESPN that he's not necessarily locked in as the starter for the entire season.
The Crimson Tide brought in Buchner as a transfer following spring practice in April. He played under first-year Alabama offensive coordinator Tommy Rees at Notre Dame and entered the 2022 season as the Irish starter before injuring his shoulder in Week 2 and missing the remainder of the regular season.
Alabama coach Nick Saban told ESPN this summer that he wasn't in a rush to name a starter and wanted to see how the preseason played out before making a decision.
