Report: Saints hosting Justin Simmons for visit
Free-agent safety Justin Simmons will visit the New Orleans Saints on Wednesday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
A two-time Pro Bowler, Simmons is one of the top free agents remaining on the market.
The 30-year-old spent all eight seasons of his NFL career with the Denver Broncos before being cut this offseason. The Broncos drafted him in the third round in 2016.
Simmons has built a reputation for being one of the top safeties in the league and made the Pro Bowl last season after recording three interceptions, two forced fumbles, and 70 tackles. He also notched a league-high six interceptions in 2022.
Signing Simmons would give the Saints a formidable safety unit, as they also have three-time All-Pro Tyrann Mathieu on the roster.
