Former Tennessee quarterback Joe Milton III has one of the most thrilling arms of any of this year’s NFL Draft prospects.
At the school’s Pro Day on Wednesday, Milton put his astounding deep passing abilities to use as he showed NFL teams what he’s capable of doing on the field.
After throwing a thrilling deep ball down the field with relative ease, Milton did an impressive backflip to celebrate.
While Milton might not go as highly in this year’s draft as some of the other quarterbacks on the board, his athletic potential and clear strengths as a pure passer should entice an NFL team to take a chance on his ceiling.

Tennessee saw one of its former quarterbacks drafted last year with Hendon Hooker in the third round by the Detroit Lions, and Milton should follow in his footsteps as being the next promising Volunteers signal caller in the NFL.
It’s just a matter of where he’ll go and what he’ll be able to do when he gets there. At the least, he’s capable of throwing a mighty fine deep pass.
