A former Clemson star, and current NFL free agent, reportedly met with an NFC team on Monday.

The Green Bay Packers brought in Isaiah Simmons on a free agent visit, according to NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport.

Simmons, a versatile linebacker, has spent the last two seasons playing for the New York Giants. The 6-foot-4, 238-pounder was traded to New York from the Arizona Cardinals prior to the 2023 season and then re-signed with the Giants as an unrestricted free agent last offseason.

A first-round pick of the Cardinals (eighth overall) in 2020, Simmons played at Clemson from 2016-19. He transitioned from safety in 2017 to the starting nickel/sam linebacker position in 2018 and was eventually named the Butkus Award winner as the nation’s top linebacker in 2019 in only his second year at the position.

Simmons concluded his Clemson career credited with 253 tackles (28.5 for loss), 10.5 sacks, 22 pass breakups, four interceptions (including one returned for a touchdown), five forced fumbles and a fumble recovery in 1,856 career snaps over 44 games (29 starts).

For the Giants last season, Simmons played in all 17 games (one start), tallying 21 total tackles, one quarterback hit, a forced fumble and two passes defended.

Simmons was named the NFC Special Teams Player of the Week for his game-sealing play in the Giants’ 29-20 victory over the Seattle Seahawks in Week 5 of last season. Playing in his first game on the Giants’ field goal block team, Simmons came up clutch with a blocked kick on a game-tying field goal attempt by the Seahawks in the waning moments of regulation. The blocked field goal was returned for a 60-yard touchdown with 55 seconds left, clinching the win for New York.

Overall, in 84 games (42 starts) over his NFL career with the Cardinals and Giants from 2020-24, Simmons has recorded 329 total tackles (15 for loss), 8.5 sacks, 13 quarterback hits, 21 passes defended, nine forced fumbles, three fumble recoveries and five interceptions, including two he returned for touchdowns.
