After eight fruitful seasons as a ballhawking specialist in the Mile High, Justin Simmons quickly showed his new organization how seamlessly the “no fly zone” defensive approach translates as a member of the Atlanta Falcons. Diagnosing the Pittsburgh Steelers’ hitch route attempt on third-and-medium, the two-time Pro Bowler steps up to deliver a pass breakup, forcing a 56-yard field goal attempt. One-half of the Falcons’ new star-powered safety grouping, Simmons recorded three tackles, one pass defended, and nine passing yards allowed during Week 1’s 18-10 loss on Sept. 8, 2024.
