ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Mississippi State DT Jeffery Simmons suffered a torn ACL during a pre-draft training session.
It is a devastating blow for a player who was expected to be a first-round pick despite not being invited to the Combine because of a 2016 incident in which he was seen punching a woman multiple times while she was on the ground. He pleaded no contest to a simple assault charge following the incident. A big (6-foot-4, 300 pounds) interior disruptor, it is possible a team takes a shot on Simmons Day 2 despite his injury and off-field concerns.

You are correct, that probably takes him off our draft board. DAMN!!
