Alabama Crimson Tide is making a mark on this year’s NFL Draft. With Bryce Young making history as their first-ever #1 pick, they are riding high with 6 total picks this year. The latest one to join that elite group is defensive lineman Byron Young, the Las Vegas Raiders’ pick at #70. Though fans are more interested in knowing if he’s moving to Las Vegas alone, or if he’s bringing a +1.

Byron Young played for 4 years with the Crimson Tide, recording 48 tackles and 4 sacks in 4 years. NFL.com’s Lance Zielein says, “Young has decent length and is well-schooled at attacking blocks with good technical savvy. He’s much better as a read-react defender than a one-gapper and must win with power and balance over quickness. “
Who is Raiders’ Byron Young dating?
It seems skills and talent are not the only things Byron Young will be bringing to Las Vegas. As the New York Times reports, Young has been dating fellow Alabama student Jennifer Vopham since 2022. Vopham is a member of the Zeta Tau Alpha sorority. Plus, she is often seen sharing photos of her with Young on her Instagram.
Whether or not he brings Vopham with him to Las Vegas, fans can be sure that he will bring his A-game to the gridiron. Especially when the Raiders have a chance at putting up stern resistance to defending Super Bowl winners, the Chiefs. Though they themselves may not be in contention to win the top prize, a playoff spot is still a massive improvement. Will Byron Young help them in their quest for redemption?
