Only a few minutes removed from watching their offense take command of the game through a nine-play touchdown drive, Jeffery Simmons and the Tennessee Titans’ defense knew that the Jets’ response would likely arrive with added urgency. Matching New York’s intensity with an immovable, 305-pound frame of his own on third-and-short, the two-time Pro Bowler intrudes the backfield with force, joining his teammate for a pivotal run stop to the home crowd’s delight. Simmons’ impact, even in a 24-17 defeat in Week 2, was particularly noteworthy in the run game, as he tallied up five tackles (three solo, two assist) on Sept. 15, 2024.
