Ex-Tide Quarterback Blake Sims Signs AAFL Contract

Former Tide quarterback Blake Sims will get the chance to continue his football career and he’ll get to do it right up the road in Birmingham. Sims announced via his Instagram account that he agreed to terms on a contract with the Alliance of Birmingham of the newly formed American Alliance of Football League. Sims will play quarterback.

This is huge for Sims as he has bounced around the NFL and CFL since his last snap for Alabama. Only in Canada was he given the chance to compete at quarterback but that didn’t last long. He was also a member of the Atlanta Falcons and Tampa Buccaneers organizations.
