PITTSBURGH (93.7 The Fan) – Rumors of Steelers interest, NFL Network reports Tuesday Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson has scheduled in-person visits.
Likely the second quarterback taken in the NFL Draft, Ian Rapoport reports after already having a private workout with the Jets, Simpson will visit the Cardinals, Dolphins and Browns.
Simpson did meet with the Steelers at the NFL Combine in Indy, what he called a ‘great’ meeting.
“Coach McCarthy's the guy, man,” Simpson said at the NFL Combine. “It was funny, we'd go in there, ask a couple questions, and we were just talking ball, going back and forth, talking about past concepts, talking about protection, talking about situations.”
“And it was cool to see all the quarterbacks he's worked with, with Dak (Prescott) and Aaron Rodgers, and then situations that's come up in his career that he asked me about what I thought about it. And it was really cool because we were just going back and forth.”
“And by the time that we were finished, it felt like five minutes just because of how much fun we had.”
“I love Coach McCarthy, love the Steelers, I love those guys, and I'm super excited to get to know them.”
Yet no visit scheduled in Pittsburgh.
The Steelers have had in-person meetings with North Dakota State quarterback Cole Payton and Miami QB Carson Beck. They also met with Beck at the NFL Combine.
