The New England Patriots, under Eliot Wolf, selected running back Jam Miller from Alabama as their first player from the Crimson Tide since 2021, drafted 245th overall in 2026. Miller, standing 5’10” and weighing 209 lbs, had a college career marked by a total of 1,596 rushing yards and 13 touchdowns, although his final season was disappointing due to injuries and inconsistent performance. He is expected to compete for a backup role behind Rhamondre Stevenson, but faces stiff competition and may end up on the practice squad. His lack of dynamic playmaking ability and underdeveloped skills in pass protection raise questions about his long-term viability on the roster.
