Bucky Brooks, NFL Network: Ohio State OT Josh Simmons
Similar to other analysts, Brooks suggests reinforcing protection for quarterback Matthew Stafford if he and the Rams move forward together. Listed at 6-5 and 310 pounds, Simmons suffered a season-ending left knee injury in the first half of the Buckeyes’ loss to Oregon on Oct. 12. He had started at left tackle in all six of Ohio State’s games prior to the injury.
Overall, Simmons was a three-year starter in college, spending his first two years at San Diego State, redshirting for the Aztecs in 2021 before becoming its starting right tackle in 2022. Upon transferring to Ohio State ahead of the 2023 season, he started 13 games at left tackle.
