Josh Simmons, the Kansas City Chiefs rookie left tackle, is on the mend from a torn patellar tendon injury that cut his college season short. Although he missed OTAs, Simmons is now participating in minicamp and feeling optimistic about his recovery.

Despite wanting to rush into full-contact drills, Simmons is taking a cautious approach, focusing on daily progress. He'll be competing with veteran Jaylon Moore for the starting position, which adds pressure, but his steady return could give him an edge if he showcases his skills during training camp.
