For a bit more context: Dennis Allen is really good at generating single team opportunities for his DTs. Their DTs haven't been good at winning those. Jeffery Simmons will be. nitter.gq/throwthedamball/status…

🚨🚨HILARIOUS🚨🚨 New #Seahawks OL Quenton Nelson had the funniest reaction to the #Bears trading for superstar DT Jeffery Simmons. “I was like, ‘Man, can’t get away from this guy.’” Nelson faced Simmons for years in the AFC South and now has to face him again Monday night.

The 25-year-old Simmons doesn't get a lot of national attention playing for the Titans, but that could change if he continues to get sacks.

Some of y’all wanted the #Bears to swing big. Poles did… two 1st’s for All-Pro DT Jeffery Simmons. You can’t ask for bold moves and then instantly criticize the moment he makes one. If it doesn’t work, then fine. They’re going for it & I’m not mad at that. 🐻⬇️ @HaughPayton

I truly believe many fans have detached themselves from the fun of fandom. Worrying about future draft picks instead of reveling in acquiring a truly great player is wild to me. The games just became infinitely more fun!

Browns got Jared Verse. We seriously now value picks more than good players. How did this happen?

Titans got more for Jeffrey Simmons than Browns got for Myles Garrett.

The Jeffery Simmons trade is essentially the Khalil Mack trade except: A: He's already been paid B: The Bears know what they have at QB
