Former Iowa State wide receiver and return man Jarvis West may have been passed up by all 32 NFL teams, but he's garnered interest from a team up north.

According to the official website for the Toronto Argonauts, the Canadian Football League team signed West on Wednesday.

The 5-foot-7, 170-pound receiver/return man from St. Petersburg, Fla., tallied over 1,400 returning yards in his four years at Iowa State, and will likely be predominantly used in that capacity at the professional level.

The Argonauts simultaneously released former Iowa State defensive back David Sims, who signed with the team in December after a few years in the NFL, as they added West.
