Won't play against Rockets Simmons (undisclosed) isn't available for the Zips against Toledo.
Impact Simmons is coming off a big performance of 113 yards, but he won't be available on Tuesday night. The Zips' top tailback will likely be replaced by Charles Kellom against Toledo.

133 rushing yards. Golden Flashes Simmons notched 11 carries for 113 yards during Tuesday's 38-17 victory against Kent State.
Impact Simmons contributed a season-high 113 rushing yards for the Zips, though he was unable to punch in a touchdown which has been a problem thus far. The 5-foot-11 running back now has 110 rushing attempts for 664 yards and two touchdowns on the year, and he'll look to finish out the season strong next week against Toledo.

109 yards vs. Eagles Simmons had 16 carries for 109 yards and hauled in their only target for one yard during Saturday's 25-21 win versus Eastern Michigan.
Impact Simmons put out his second 100-yard performance of the season, outpacing all other Zips running backs by more than double. Unfortunately, supplementary rushing quarterback Tahj Bullock looks to be Akron's goal-line rusher as the quarterback has five rushing touchdowns of under 10 yards in the last three games. Although this doesn't mean Simmons won't get looks in the coming weeks, he can't be depended on for touchdowns at this point in the season.

Scores during loss Simmons had 13 carries for 63 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 34-24 defeat versus Western Michigan.
Impact Simmons has been solid in the past two weeks, racking up 60 or more rushing yards in each and finally getting a rushing touchdown against WMU. The starting ball carrier should continue to get the bulk of the rushing workload from the running back position, but he could see his touchdown upside go down as backup quarterback Tahj Bullock has been getting carries in the red zone.
OCTOBER 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Over 100 totals yards in loss Simmons totaled nine carries for 73 yards and caught all five targets for 32 yards during Saturday's 27-20 defeat against Bowling Green.
Impact Simmons hasn't been great so far this season, but he was able to hit his second most rushing yards of the season and surpass 100 scrimmage yards for the second time this year. The junior ball carrier doesn't look to be a great fantasy play at this point in the season, but an increased workload in the running and passing game could mean more productivity in the coming weeks.

Punches score in loss Simmons posted nine carries for 109 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 49-17 loss against Rutgers.
Impact Simmons was perhaps one of the only bright spots of Akron's offense as the team got taken over by Rugters. The 5-foot-11 running back punched in a long rush score in the fourth quarter which did amount to most of his performance, but he will be leaned on continuously in the coming weeks with the Zips' volatile air attack.

Signs with Akron Simmons has signed with Akron, according to the Zips' announcement Wednesday.
Impact Simmons is hoping Akron can help him get back on track. Before 2022, he logged 278 rushing yards and a receiving touchdown during the Michigan State Spartans' 2021 season. They began preferring other options afterward, hence his significant decline in statistical output since then. But with the Akron team expected to lose multiple running backs (redshirt seniors Lorenzo Lingard and Drake Anderson), Simmons stands a decent chance of shining brighter than he ever did with MSU.
