My Take

What draws me to Jeffery Simmons is the trajectory: a kid out of rural Louisiana grinding his way to a first-round draft slot and a starting role as a defensive tackle for the Tennessee Titans. The interior line is the least glamorous, most punishing spot on the field, and the players who thrive there tend to be the ones with the most quiet stubbornness. His social handle literally reads 'Grind,' which feels less like branding and more like a creed. I have a soft spot for athletes whose value shows up in the trenches rather than the highlight reel, and Simmons strikes me as exactly that kind of relentless, unshowy workhorse.
