What happened: Both turnovers came Sunday during Milroe’s second appearance of the 2026 preseason. He entered the game after completing 5 of 8 passes for 36 yards in the opener.

Why it matters: The multi-turnover outing puts ball security at the center of Jalen Milroe’s preseason evaluation. The sharp reversal from his clean opener arrives as roster decisions approach.

By the numbers: Milroe went 5-of-8 for 36 yards with no interceptions in the preseason opener, then threw at least two interceptions Sunday.

What to watch: Milroe’s response in Friday’s preseason finale will provide the next measure of his progress.
