@jsimms1119 @BriMaestas303 And somehow, this hit didn't result in an ejection, suspension, or even a fine? Here, Dorian Williams launched himself and made helmet-to-helmet contact with Courtland Sutton, a defenseless receiver, on the play. SMH

A single post cannot express how much @jsimms1119 meant to the Denver Broncos since being drafted in 2016. It's a shame that he never made the playoffs with Denver. Hopefully, wherever he ends up to finish his career, he can compete for—and win—a Super Bowl. THANK YOU, JUSTIN!
