Simmons ranks as the No. 61 defensive lineman in 247Sports’ rankings for the 2025 class. He’s also listed as the No. 9 player from Michigan in the class.

Michigan State is one of 11 schools to offer Simmons, according to 247Sports. Other notable programs to offer Simmons includes Cincinnati, Illinois, Purdue and Northwestern.
