Elijah Simmons brings brute-force size and NFL-caliber power to the defensive line
Simmons is a massive interior defender whose best calling card is pure strength: at 6-foot-1 and 334-335 pounds, he’s built to anchor the middle, eat space, and collapse pockets with heavy hands and leverage. He also showed enough athleticism to run a 5.37-second 40 at the 2025 combine, a useful note for a player of his size. His profile fits teams that want a true nose tackle with disruptive short-area power rather than a flashy stat producer.
