It has been a busy week for headlines featuring Simpson’s name. Yates released a mock draft on Tuesday, projecting that the Arizona Cardinals make a trade to get a late-Round 1 pick and grab Simpson at No. 26. That would make Simpson QB2 in the 2026 NFL Draft class, behind Fernando Mendoza. ESPN’s Dan Orlovsky turned heads when he declared Simpson to be QB1 over Mendoza on Monday’s edition of Get Up.
