In 2023 as a sophomore he played in 6 games as he passed for just 179 yards on 21 attempts with a completion percent of 57.1 for an average of 8.5 yards per pass, with no TDs, while also taking 5 sacks, and putting up QB rating of 85.2. He made 12 runs for a total of 118 yards at an average of 13.1 per rush.

Scouting Report: Strengths
  • Sprays the ball anywhere on the field, especially when given a pocket from which to deliver. Will step up into pocket while looking downfield, reset his feet and deliver.
  • Simpson has a quick release and shows good accuracy on shorter throws when on the move to either side.
  • Simpson has plus arm strength and a willingness and ability to throw receivers open, as well as good ball placement out to intermediate levels.
  • He’s a threat with his legs - his play-fakes are outstanding, and Simpson has the ability to manipulate safeties with his eyes.
  • Flashes good accuracy to all levels of the field and has the arm strength to make every requisite NFL throw.
  • Enough arm strength to drive the ball through tight windows up to 20 yards downfield. Spreads the ball around to multiple receivers.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • He’s more comfortable throwing deep outside the numbers than working the middle of the field.
  • Too often fails to give receivers a chance to make a play after the catch. High completion percentage padded by many quick screens.
  • Marginal height, which will prove more of a detriment in an offense that asks him to drop back from center more often.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance. For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.

*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
