Simmons, a 21-year-old freak, is already squatting 225 pounds six months post-surgery and got the green light for a mid-April pro day. With Burkholder’s Midas touch (remember Mahomes’ three-week patella comeback in 2019?) and cutting-edge rehab, Simmons is storming toward training camp, ready to claim his throne as an elite left tackle.
