The big defensive tackle has been coming on during the Broncos’ winning streak after something of a slow start to the season. He made two plays against Buffalo out along the sideline. On Sunday night against Minnesota, he forced an Alexander Mattison fumble. In the closing moments, he rolled right over center Garrett Bradbury and hit quarterback Josh Dobbs, forcing an intentional grounding penalty.

The turnovers are going to get all the attention, but Simmons made two fantastic plays on Minnesota’s last-ditch drive by knocking the ball away from tight end T.J. Hockenson. Hockenson’s a big, strong player, but Simmons wouldn’t be denied.
