Former Alabama wide receiver, DeVonta Smith had a career day against the Minnesota Vikings.

Smith pulled in nine receptions for a career-high 183 receiving yards in the Eagles’ win over the Vikings. It was one of the more impressive outings for a wide receiver this season.

The Louisiana native pulled in the longest touchdown of his career in the third quarter when his Alabama teammate, Jalen Hurts, connected with him for a 79-yard scoring strike.

Smith will look to capitalize on these big game and shake off a slow start to the season for him as a wide receiver.
