<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Seven-year veteran LB Anthony Simmons, who did not play in the NFL in 2005 as he recovered from a broken wrist, has signed a one-year, $1.5 million contract with the New Orleans Saints. Simmons was a standout for the Seattle Seahawks until the team released him last spring. Simmons, 29, had auditions with several teams last spring and summer but, with his wrist slow to heal, was unable to sign with any of them.http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2372555</div>
Simmons didn't even see the field with the Pats, so only time could tell if he works out for them. It's a 1 year deal and he came at a bargain price so it might turn out to be a decent signing.
