Ty Simpson makes headlines as a rising prospect in the 2026 NFL Draft, transitioning from Alabama backup to a potential first-round selection. Here’s why his journey is captivating NFL teams and fans alike.
At the NFL Combine, Simpson finds himself at the center of attention, facing a barrage of interviews and evaluations. The 6-foot-1 quarterback showcases his skills and knowledge, revealing his favorite career moment: a game-winning throw in the Iron Bowl that propelled Alabama to the SEC Championship. With a coach for a father, Jason Simpson, Ty’s football IQ is impressive, but his draft stock faces scrutiny.
Injuries have plagued his college career, including a fractured rib and back issues, limiting him to just 15 starts. His completion rate dipped to 57% in crucial late-season games against top opponents like Georgia and Oklahoma, raising questions about his readiness for the NFL.
Despite these challenges, teams see potential in Simpson as a developmental quarterback who could be ready to start by 2027. His decision to forego the transfer portal, despite having more eligibility, reflects his commitment to growth. As discussions about his draft position intensify, Simpson and his family remain optimistic about the future.
