For most of the six years since the Denver Broncos drafted him in the 3rd round of the 2016 NFL Draft, Justin Simmons has been widely acknowledged as one of the best safeties in the league- arguably the best. But he’s yet to make his NFL playoffs debut due, mostly, to the team’s chronic issues at quarterback and poor offensive coaching.
Along with that, we should hopefully see Simmons start reaping more of the Pro Bowl & All Pro recognition that he richly deserves. He’s been a classic case of an elite guy getting overlooked due to playing on mediocre teams.
