Rotowire
Simmons (knee) is participating in practice at Titans camp this week, Nick Suss of The Tennesseean reports.
Simmons went on injured reserve late last season with his knee issue and didn't take part in minicamp. The Titans were likely just being cautious with their star defender. Simmons is good to go for the start of training camp after missing five games last year. Turning 27 years old Sunday, Simmons has 26.5 career sacks across five campaigns.
Simmons (knee) didn't practice Tuesday during the Titans' minicamp session, Nubyjas Wilborn of SI.com reports.
Head coach Brian Callahan said that Simmons is still recovering from the knee injury that he suffered late in the 2023 season. Simmons appeared in the Titans' first 12 games last season, tallying 44 total tackles, 5.5 sacks and one forced fumble. Once the 26-year-old defensive lineman returns to the field, he's expected to continue dominating the line of scrimmage.
