Run blocking and penalties continue to plague our OL, and Josh is unquestionably struggling at both. Heres the scouting report on him last year.
“Simmons played 799 snaps last year, second-most among San Diego State linemen. He was flagged for 17 penalties, according to Pro Football Focus, the most of any offensive tackle nationally.”
According to PFF, Simmons allowed four sacks in 404 passing snaps. He graded better as a pass blocker (65.3) than run blocker (47.7).
I know it’s early but I’m concerned that maybe this is just who he is. IMO If he doesn’t show a lot of improvement In practice this week and early in next weeks game. I think they have no choice but see what Luke or Tegra can do.
