Name: Jason Simmons

Position: Defensive Back

Year: Sophomore

Height: 6’0”

Weight: 193lbs

Hometown: Lancaster, Texas

High School: Lancaster (via New Mexico State)

2021 stats: Appeared in 11 games for the Orange last year, starting 10 at free safety. Recorded 41 tackles and a pick last year, as well as a forced fumble.

2022 projections: He was a starter last year, he should start this year. Only thing possibly altering that would be one of the young guys making a huge jump, in which case he would still see a lot of the field and we’d be deeper for it.
