Alabama offensive lineman DJ Fluker began his NFL comeback during the Crimson Tide’s pro day back in the spring, and his efforts have finally paid off.

Fluker last appeared in the NFL during the 2021 season where he had stints with the Miami Dolphins, Raiders and Jacksonville Jaguars.

After three years at Alabama, where he was a first-team All-American and helped the Crimson Tide win back-to-back national championships, Fluker was selected with the No. 11 pick in the 2013 NFL Draft by the San Diego Chargers.

He played the first four seasons of his career with the Chargers before playing for the New York Giants in 2017 and then Seattle Seahawks in 2018-19 and then joined the Baltimore Ravens in 2020 before his three-team run in 2021.
