Isaiah Simmons, former Clemson football player
Former Clemson football LB/S Isaiah Simmons was taken with the No. 8 overall pick by the Arizona Cardinals in the first-round of the 2020 NFL Draft, but things didn’t necessarily go as smoothly for him during his rookie season as many would’ve liked.
After bouncing around positions, Simmons finished the 2020 season with 54 total tackles, two sacks and one interception with limited snaps (he started seven games). For many rookies that would be considered a solid year, but Simmons was held to a much higher standard as a top-10 pick following his standout career with Clemson football.
