Former Alabama wide receiver, Cam Sims has signed a one-year deal with the Las Vegas Raiders according to Ben Standig of the Athletic.

Sims spent four years in Tuscaloosa but didn’t see much playing time until his last couple of years, catching 41 balls for 467 yards and 2 touchdowns. The big-bodied wideout went undrafted in 2018 and signed with the Washington Redskins practice squad, where he was waived and re-signed on multiple occasions by the team

In 2020 he had his best pro game, catching 3 passes for 102 yards against the New York Giants which cemented his spot on the team for the next few seasons. His most famous catch came against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 13 of the 2021 season, where he caught a touchdown pass over former Alabama corner Trevon Diggs.

The two-time national champion will join former Crimson Tide tight end O.J.Howard in Vegas, who also signed today, the duo were teammates from 2014-2016.

Sims has 804 yards and 3 touchdowns since coming into the league and will hope to make the most of his new opportunity.
