Carl Tucker becomes the third undrafted free agent from Alabama football to find an NFL home.

After the NFL Draft, Tucker announced he was signing with the Miami Dolphins.

A native of Concord, N.C., he played four seasons at the University of North Carolina (2016-19) before spending last year at Alabama.

The 6-foot-2, 248-pounder has 36 receptions for 549 yards with four touchdowns in 38 career games as a tight end.

Injuries limited him to seven games for the Crimson Tide; however, he did collect a Southeastern Conference title ring and a College Football Playoff National Championship ring.

Hopefully, Tucker will be able to make the roster for the Dolphins.
