A pair of former Alabama stars, Cam Sims and Trevon Diggs, are going head-to-head today in Washington’s match-up with Dallas.
And while the Cowboys are getting the better of the Redskins, in the 3rd quarter it was Sims getting the better of Diggs on one of the best catches of the NFL season to date.
Streaking down the left sideline, Sims caught a 43-yard strike from Taylor Heinicke over the outstretched arm of Diggs and managed to come down just inbounds for the score.

The pass was originally ruled incomplete on the field but the call was overruled by replay officials.
After the catch, Diggs couldn’t help but show some respect to his former teammates for the impressive grab.

The game between the 2 teams today has not been anywhere as exciting as Sims’ catch, however, as the Cowboys lead 27-8 early in the 4th quarter.
