2023 Season Countdown: #128 Peter Simmons III

 

Peter Simmons III

Name: Peter Simmons III
Height: 
6’2″
Weight: 
291 lbs.
High school: 
Bonita Springs (FL) Bishop Verot
Position: 
Defensive tackle
Class: 
Redshirt sophomore
Jersey number: 
#75 #70
Last year: 
I ranked Simmons #120 and said he would be a backup offensive lineman (LINK). He did not play.
TTB Rating:
 N/A

Simmons is yet another walk-on whose burden was so heavy that he got one inch shorter from 2022 to 2023. Whoever's measuring these walk-ons needs to be fired.

Anyway, in addition to getting smaller, Simmons has moved from offensive guard to defensive tackle this off-season. I do not expect that to have much effect on his playing time. He is still unlikely to get on the field unless it's a huge blowout.

Prediction: Backup defensive tackle

  1. Unless shorter is better in which case give the measurement guy a raise!
