2024 Fantasy Outlook
Simmons had a disappointing 2023 campaign after signing a four-year, $94 million extension in the offseason. He was limited to 12 games due to injury, though it's unclear if he was ever truly healthy. He had a procedure in April of 2023 to clean up an issue with his ankle, an issue which may have briefly popped up again in late October. One month later, he suffered a knee injury that ultimately derailed his season for good. After a normal offseason, the hope is that Simmons will enter both training camp and the regular season healthy, in which case he should be productive as the centerpiece of the Titans' defensive line.

Mike Vrabel's commitment to the 3-4 defense is admirable, but it's keeping Simmons from being the dominant pass rusher his physical tools say he should be. Even so, the 19th overall pick in the 2019 draft has 16 sacks in 32 games the last two seasons, impressive production for a 3-4 defensive end. He's also topped 50 tackles each of those two years, giving him a solid fantasy floor when the sacks aren't coming. The return of Harold Landry gives Simmons more help off the edge, potentially freeing him up to reach double-digit sacks for the first time.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Trade seems unlikely
Simmons is likely to be off the table for the Titans in trade discussions, Dianna Russini of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Tennessee has already traded wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins to Kansas City and linebacker Ernest Jones to Seattle, but Simmons, the Titans' star defensive tackle, still is viewed as a core piece of the roster. The 27-year-old has three years left on the contract extension he signed in April 2023, but only $6 million of his remaining salary is currently guaranteed.
