Paul Kuharsky: Titans first round pick Jeffery Simmons to be activated and begin practicing next week

IT’S HAPPENING.

Paul Kuharsky reported this morning that the Titans plan to activate first round defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons from the Non-Football Injury list next week.

Simmons will begin practicing next week and the team hopes for him to play against the Chargers in Week 7 in a limited capacity. The nice thing about bringing Simmons back from an ACL injury compared to the Titans bringing Jack Conklin back a year ago is that defensive linemen can be rotated in and out. I’d expect Simmons to see something like 10-20 snaps during his first game and the team can see where it goes from there based on how he looks.
