• Broncos' Justin Simmons: Impressive in Week 1

  15D ago • By RotoWire Staff

  Simmons recorded four tackles (three solo), a pass defensed and an interception across 57 defensive snaps in Sunday's win over the Seahawks. Simmons showed his athleticism as he jumped high in the air to secure an interception late in the third quarter. The safety only recorded two interceptions all of last season, a threshold he'll look to pass this season.

  The Broncos placed Simmons (ankle) on injured reserve Wednesday, Ben Swanson of the Broncos' official site reports. Simmons suffered a left high-ankle sprain in Sunday's win over the Jets, and although the injury was initially believed to be minor, it will cost him the final three games of the season. The 24-year-old finishes his second NFL campaign with 68 tackles (49 solo), a sack and two interceptions in 13 games. Will Parks will likely serve as Simmons' primary replacement at strong safety the rest of the way.

  Simmons is considered day-to-day with a "mild" high-ankle sprain, Nick Kosmider of The Denver Post reports. Simmons, who went down during Sunday's victory over the Jets, was listed as a non-participant on Monday's injury report, per Zac Stevens of BSN Denver. He seems unlikely to be ready in time for Thursday's game against the Colts, but he still has Tuesday and Wednesday to return to the fold.
