Most of these guys were early in their careers/in their prime.
Like 50 percent of guys who have this injury have even return to play in the NFL. And I can’t find a single dude who came back and was as good as he was before.
Simmons’ knee can check out healthy and the repair can be successful, and all history tells us that his new “healthy best” won’t be as good as it was before.
That’s the problem.

Interesting to say the least. Simmons has youth on his side. I also think KC is in the perfect spot to take a gamble with Jaylon Moore in the fold for the next two years. We'll see how far he slides.
