To every general manager, head coach, scout, and decision-maker across the National Football League:
This is about Ty Simpson.
And more importantly, this is about not missing the kind of player who builds winning cultures long after the draft grades fade and the highlight reels stop looping.
Football has never been short on talent.
Arm strength gets measured.
Speed gets clocked.
Film gets dissected frame by frame.
But what the league still struggles to quantify, and what doesn’t fit neatly into analytics, is loyalty, resilience, humility, and the ability to lead when the easy thing would be to leave.
Ty Simpson chose the hard road.
Over and over again.
He arrived at Alabama with expectations that could crush lesser players. Five-star label. The weight of history. A quarterback room that was always crowded, always competitive, always unforgiving. And when things didn’t go exactly as planned, when the noise got louder, when opportunities weren’t immediate.. Ty didn’t bolt.
He didn’t point fingers. He didn’t tweet. He didn’t look for shortcuts. He didn't look for an out.
He stayed.
In an era where transferring has become the default response to adversity, Ty Simpson doubled down on commitment. He invested in his teammates. He learned the system. He waited his turn. He worked. Quietly. Relentlessly. With purpose.
That matters more than people realize.
Because NFL locker rooms aren’t built on hype.
They’re built on trust.
Ty earned that trust.
Coaches trusted him to prepare like a starter even when he wasn’t named one. Teammates trusted him because he showed up the same way every single day: accountable, competitive, unselfish.
When his number was called, he was ready.
Not flashy-ready.
Professional-ready.
Watch the tape when he’s healthy.
You’ll see accuracy that doesn’t panic under pressure.
You’ll see decision-making that values the next play more than the last mistake.
You’ll see mobility that extends drives without turning into recklessness. You’ll see command, real command, of an offense.
But what you won’t fully see on film is what he brings when things go sideways.
Ty Simpson has lived inside pressure. Alabama football is pressure. Every snap is judged. Every incompletion dissected. Every loss magnified. And through it all, he never fractured. He never pointed outward. He carried himself like someone who understood that leadership isn’t about controlling the narrative, it’s about controlling yourself.
That translates.
The NFL doesn’t just need quarterbacks who can throw.
It needs quarterbacks who can endure.
Who can be second on the depth chart and still lead. Who can handle being hit, questioned, doubted, and come back sharper. Who understand that success is rented and rent is due every day.
Ty has already paid that rent.
He’s the kind of quarterback who elevates a room. The kind of teammate offensive linemen fight for because he never throws them under the bus. The kind of leader receivers believe in because he tells them the truth. The kind of competitor who pushes the starter in practice and then supports him on Saturday.
Those guys last.
You don’t win championships with talent alone.
You win them with players who make everyone around them better.
With players who understand the grind.
With players who love the work more than the applause.
Ty Simpson is loyal in a league that often isn’t.
Driven in a game that chews people up.
Talented without being entitled.
Confident without being loud.
And maybe most important of all, he never left when it got hard.
That tells you everything you need to know.
Some quarterbacks are projects. Some are stopgaps. Some are highlights waiting to happen. Ty Simpson is a foundation piece. He’s the kind of player you develop, trust, and eventually lean on when the moment demands steadiness instead of spectacle.
If you’re looking for a quarterback who understands what it means to earn it, earn the huddle, earn the locker room, earn the logo on the helmet, this is your guy.
Don’t overthink it.
Don’t outsmart yourselves.
Don’t let patience, loyalty, and leadership get lost in the noise.
Any team that drafts Ty Simpson isn’t just getting a quarterback.
They’re getting a pro.
They’re getting a teammate.
They’re getting a competitor who already knows how to fight through adversity, and win.
And years from now, when he’s still standing while others have washed out, you’ll remember this letter.
Don’t miss out on Ty Simpson.
