The Denver Broncos face a pivotal moment as star safety Justin Simmons, a four-time Pro Bowler, finds himself as a free agent after signing with the Atlanta Falcons in 2024. The 31-year-old’s potential move back to the Broncos’ division rivals, particularly the Las Vegas Raiders, is generating buzz. Analysts suggest the Raiders, under coach Pete Carroll’s defensive scheme, could greatly benefit from Simmons' experience and skills. With ample salary cap space in 2025, the Raiders are well-positioned to seek veteran talent.

Moreover, their pass game coordinator Joe Woods previously coached Simmons in Denver, solidifying a familiar connection that could entice him to join their ranks. Simmons, who led the league in interceptions in 2022, remains a formidable presence on the field. If he does sign with a rival, fantasy managers should be prepared for some high-stakes matchups, as revenge games against the Broncos and other AFC West teams loom. Simmons' past performance and current trajectory suggest he could still be a top-tier fantasy asset, making his next move a key point of interest for both fans and fantasy sports enthusiasts.
