ON THE FIELD
Simpson-Hunt may be a star football player, but he’s also an excellent track athlete. From watching his film, the 6-foot, 175-pound cornerback’s speed is evident, as he officially recorded a time of 10.67 seconds in the 100-meter dash and 21.77 seconds in the 200-meter dash last March. He also recorded a mark of six feet in the high jump and has run a 4.38-second 40-yard dash.

In Simpson-Hunt’s junior season, he was named a Texas District 11-6A first-team selection for Waxahachie High School (Waxahachie, Texas). Last year, Simpson Hunt racked up 29 tackles (5 for loss), one sack, one quarterback hurry, one interception and two pass deflections in 10 games, while also returning a blocked field goal for a touchdown.

Simpson-Hunt excels at guarding a top opposing wideout lined up on the outside and is efficient with using his length to press him and disrupt his burst off the line of scrimmage, even knocking some of them to the ground before they even truly go through their route progression. He’s equally adept at shedding blocks on run plays. He shows excellent ball skills in defending jump balls, and is hardly ever going to get beat deep by a wideout as evident by his elite speed.

While in zone coverage, Simpson-Hunt displays enough awareness to react to plays in front of him and the physicality needed to break up wide receiver screens. In occasional situations, Simpson-Hunt can add to a team’s pass rush when asked to blitz in an exotic pass-rush scheme. Simpson-Hunt is never afraid to be a special teams contributor, as he played on Waxahachie’s kickoff and field goal block teams and returned punts.
