The first career touchdown catch for Green Bay Packers tight end Ben Sims capped off an impressive opening drive and gave his team a 7-0 lead over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday night at Lambeau Field.
Sims, an undrafted free agent out of Baylor, was wide open in the end zone off a play-action rollout to the offense’s right side. Jordan Love, who completed all six passes on the opening drive, found him for the short score.
The Packers drove 75 yards over 13 plays and took up almost eight minutes of the first quarter clock. Love hit five different receivers and the Packers converted both third down opportunities.
Sims’ touchdown was the third by a rookie tight end this season, joining Tucker Kraft and Luke Musgrave.
Here’s the touchdown:
