The Las Vegas Raiders inserted guard John Simpson into the lineup Week 1 last season before the first quarter ended. The 2020 fourth-round pick then started the next 16 games with inconsistent play throughout the season.
Simpson's ugly performances make up most of his highlights. His 40 pressures allowed using PFF to display his performance overall. Alex Leatherwood and the former Clemson Tiger combined for 107 total pressures from the interior.
There was growth to end the season, with Simpson ranking 13th among all guards in PFF grade. He didn't allow a sack or a QB hit during this span and saw development from the offensive line overall.
