Josh Simmons Ready to Play Outside, Giving Up His Position for Jaylon Moore

Kansas City, MO – May 13, 2025
Rookie Josh Simmons, the Kansas City Chiefs’ first-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, has announced his readiness to shift to an outside position on the offensive line, relinquishing the left guard role to Jaylon Moore—the team’s controversial $30 million offseason signing.

Simmons, 22, was expected to bring youth and versatility to a Chiefs offensive line that struggled in their Super Bowl LIX loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. According to Arrowhead Pride, the left guard position has been a glaring weakness for the Chiefs since Joe Thuney was traded to the Chicago Bears in March. Initially seen as a potential fit for left guard, Simmons has now expressed his willingness to adapt for the team’s benefit. “I’m ready to play wherever I can help the team,” Simmons said at a recent press conference. “Jaylon has the experience, and I believe he’ll do great on the inside.”

Jaylon Moore, who signed a 2-year deal with the Chiefs in March, has 12 career starts from his four years with the San Francisco 49ers. Despite being labeled a “gamble” due to his limited starting experience, Moore is trusted by the Chiefs’ coaching staff to bring stability to the offensive line, particularly at left guard. Simmons’ willingness to play outside—potentially at left tackle—not only addresses a roster need but also highlights the rookie’s team-first mentality.

Head coach Andy Reid praised Simmons’ adaptability: “Josh is a smart player and eager to learn. His sacrifice opens up opportunities for us to optimize our line.” With a challenging 2025 schedule ahead, including matchups against the Buffalo Bills and Baltimore Ravens, the pairing of Simmons and Moore could be key to protecting Patrick Mahomes and propelling the Chiefs back to the top of the AFC.

Eagles Legend Wants to Withdraw from Eagles Hall of Fame If Kevin Patullo Isn't Fired
Can you believe it? A living legend of the Philadelphia Eagles, LeSean McCoy, is "rebelling" and threatening to withdraw from the Eagles Hall of Fame – the place that honors his great contributions! The reason? All because of offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo! What's happening with this legendary team? Read now for the hottest NFL "drama"! On his Speakeasy show, McCoy "dropped a bomb" with a shocking statement: “Take me off. Nobody has ever asked. I’m going to say ‘Mr. Lurie, it’s either me or Kevin’. If Kevin is not fired, put 25 back out there on the street.” (Translation: "Remove me. No one has ever asked. I'm going to say 'Mr. Lurie, it's either me or Kevin'. If Kevin isn't fired, put number 25 back on the street.") Number 25 – McCoy's legendary jersey number – could be "kicked out" of the Hall of Fame if Patullo remains in position? This isn't a joke, but a direct challenge to team owner Jeffrey Lurie! This "extreme" demand stems from extreme disappointment with the disastrous performance of the Eagles' offense under Patullo. The team that once "soared high" is now "free-falling" with silly mistakes, and McCoy isn't the only one "furious." Even Josh Reynolds "cursed" Patullo: “Kevin Patullo should never see the light of day again for the crimes he’s committed…” (Translation: "Kevin Patullo should never see the light of day again for the crimes he’s committed...") Is Patullo the "culprit" causing the Eagles to "sink"? Look at the "tragedy" of quarterback Jalen Hurts: In the most recent Monday Night Football game, he threw three interceptions – one of which was blamed on AJ Brown! Comparing this year's offensive stats to last year? Worlds apart! The problem isn't just the weak offensive line, but also the play-caller – Patullo is "miserably compared" to Kellen Moore, who once elevated the offense to new heights. The article points out: The Eagles are repeating a "historical curse" – the offense always "collapses" after losing a good coordinator, like in previous Super Bowl runs. Nick Sirianni is heavily criticized for the decision to hire Patullo: "A fatal mistake"! 👀 Eagles legend LeSean McCoy says if #Eagles do not fire OC Kevin Patullo he wants out of Hall of Fame “Take me off. Nobody has ever asked. I’m going to say ‘Mr. Lurie, it’s either me or Kevin’. If Kevin is not fired, put 25 back out there on the street”📸 @speakeasytlkshw pic.twitter.com/DcOkLiQejA — Jeff Skversky (@JeffSkversky) December 10, 2025 And the "darkest" data: In shotgun formation (51 plays), the Eagles only achieved 4.2 yards/play, 2.2 yards/rush, 5.2 yards/pass, with 4 "stupid" interceptions. But under center (15 plays)? Explosive with 10.2 yards/play, 8.8 yards/rush, 16.0 yards/pass, and 0 interceptions! Clearly, the offense performs "miraculously" better when balanced – so why is Patullo still "stubbornly persisting" with the outdated play style? Eagles fans are "boiling with rage": Will the team listen to McCoy and "deal with" Patullo to save the season? This drama is "exploding" on social media! McCoy – with his illustrious career at the Eagles – is he really withdrawing from the Hall of Fame? Or is this a "ploy" to push for change? Who will Jeffrey Lurie choose: The legend or the "culprit"? Don't miss out – follow now to see the "shocking" outcome of the Eagles' internal war! What do you think, comment below!
