SUMMARY
Quarterback Rank: #39   
Overall: #223


Simms is still looking to rebound from his ruptured spleen suffered at the end of '06. He had a cup of coffee with the Titans last season, but had just two pass attempts serving as their No. 3 most of the year. Simms has all the tools (size, arm strength, speed) to be a solid NFL quarterback, but needs to put it together. In the past, he has been turnover prone and lacked the ability to complete passes downfield. Simms is likely to be the No. 2 quarterback in Denver this season, but could get some chances to start with Kyle Orton ahead of him on the depth chart.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Simms might be worth a late-round pick if you have the roster space. Orton isn't guaranteed to start and Simms is next in line. The Broncos should have a very good passing game, which is a positive for whoever is starting.

The Associated Press reports Denver Broncos QB Kyle Orton (ankle) was not starting after halftime because of an ankle injury. Orton came up hobbling on a scramble right before halftime. When he returned to the sidelines in the second half, his left ankle was heavily taped. The Broncos say his return is doubtful. QB Chris Simms has replaced Orton.

Mike Klis, of The Denver Post, reports Denver Broncos QB Chris Simms (ankle), CB Tony Carter (leg), DT Marcus Thomas and DE Le Kevin Smith (undisclosed) are not participating in practice Thursday, Aug. 27.

Adam Schefter, of ESPN, reports Denver Broncos QB Chris Simms (ankle) sustained a high-ankle sprain, according to a team source, and could be out of action anywhere from two to four weeks.
Fantasy Impact: The injury prone label sticks. Simms had a shot to push Kyle Orton for the starting job but that is done now. He'll be the backup when healthy.

ESPNews reports Denver Broncos backup QB Chris Simms (knee) had a player roll into his knee during the team's preseason game Saturday, Aug. 22, and limped off of the field. Simms did not return to the game, and the severity of his injury is not known.
Fantasy Impact: Simms was making a push to be considered the starter, so this injury doesn't come at a good time.

Daniel Williams, of The Denver Daily News, reports Denver Broncos head coach Josh McDaniels said QB Chris Simms still has a chance to win the starting job.

John Clayton, of ESPN.com, reports he does not buy the idea that Denver Broncos QB Chris Simms is making a serious run for the team's starting quarterback job. The job likely remains QB Kyle Orton's to lose. If Orton loses his job to the left-handed Simms, the move would devalue the 2008 growth of the offensive line. OT Ryan Clady established himself as one of the league's best young left tackles last season. If Simms wins the job, Clady would either have to switch positions to protect Simms' blindside or be a less valuable blocker at left tackle.
