Victor Simmons brings veteran versatility and disruption to Kansas
Victor Simmons stood out at Kansas as a physical, high-motor defender who could line up as a buck/nickel-type linebacker and make plays behind the line; in 2024, Kansas noted he posted 32 tackles, 6.5 tackles for loss and 2 sacks before earning an NFL camp tryout with the Seahawks. That production suggests an edge-oriented, assignment-disciplined fit more than a pure volume tackler, and the fact that he kept earning roles on defense and special teams points to a player coaches trust for intensity, toughness and versatility.[1][4]
