2024 Fantasy Outlook
Opportunity knocks for Simpson following Patrick Queen's departure in free agency. A 2023 third-round draft pick, Simpson only played double-digit defensive snaps once as a rookie and that was in Week 18 when Baltimore rested its starters. He showed flashes in that game with seven tackles and a sack, but one game isn't an indicative sample. Simpson will have big shoes to fill in light of Queen's departure, but Roquan Smith's presence helped free up Queen to put up career-best numbers, and Baltimore hopes that the same can be true in Simpson's case.

Brings pressure in Week 1 loss
Simpson tallied five tackles (two solo), a half-sack and one pass defensed during Thursday's 27-20 loss to the Chiefs.
ANALYSIS
Simpson played 70 percent of Baltimore's defensive snaps Week 1, which is a larger workload than he handled at any point in his rookie season last year. The 2023 third-round pick is worth monitoring in all IDP formats considering the value that Baltimore's starting inside linebacker position has proven capable of providing. Simpson will look to take advantage of a plus matchup against the Ravens in Week 2.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set to fill Queen's shoes
Simpson is poised for a breakout season in 2024 as Patrick Queen's replacement at linebacker, per Bradley Locker of Pro Football Focus.
ANALYSIS
Simpson logged only 49 defensive snaps as a rookie while backing up Queen, who logged 133 tackles and made the Pro Bowl before signing with Pittsburgh in the offseason. Simpson looked effective in his limited opportunities, and Baltimore's 2023 third-round draft pick will now get an opportunity to play a larger role, as Simpson is expected to start following Queen's departure.
