Titans Star Jeffery Simmons: ‘I’m Tired Of Losing’

Titans star Jeffery Simmons voiced his frustration after a less-than-stellar couple of weeks for the team.

Despite a promising start post-bye week, with rookie quarterback Will Levis stepping up and throwing four touchdowns in a win against the Falcons, things have taken a downturn.

Following a close Week 9 loss to the Steelers, the Titans stumbled in a 20-6 defeat against the Buccaneers on Sunday, performing badly on both offense and defense. Simmons, their star defensive tackle, had some harsh words: “I’m tired of losing; we need to start finding a way to win the game.”

Simmons said, “We need to make more plays on defense and put the offense in good position. And, at the end of the day, we have to score more points. We have to score points, and we have to get off the field — that’s pretty much what it is. They had 20 points, and we had six. We didn’t do enough to win the game.”

Straightforward and to the point, Simmons highlighted the need for improvement. The Titans are pressed for time to turn things around before the season slips away entirely.

With a game against the 6-3 Jaguars in Week 11, the Titans aim to salvage their season. The Jags are coming off a brutal 34-3 loss to the 49ers.
