As a College Recruit

Versatile, well-rounded quarterback with the ability to stress defenses as a passer and run threat. Possesses a creative, backyard style of play with considerable experience making improvisational plays. Throws from a wide base with above average arm strength. Has continued to progress as an in-structure quarterback and is among the more accurate passers in the 2022 cycle. Lower body twitch and footwork also makes Simpson one of the more mobile signal callers in his cycle. Picks up yards on scrambles and designed runs. Smaller in size and older than most fellow top 2022 quarterbacks. Has seen an uptick in production as a senior, putting together one of the best statistical seasons among his contemporaries.

Ty Simpson‘s physical attributes, play style and movement patterns remind us of Matt Corral. Like Corral, Simpson is a twitchy mover both in and out of the pocket. Both have outstanding foot quickness with the ability to plant, drive out and reset. They’re both around the 6-foot-1 mark, though Corral was a bit heavier as a high school prospect at 210 pounds. One of the biggest similarities comes by way of the improvisational play style that bordered on backyard football at times. Both also showed live arms at the high school level with the ability to drive the ball with velocity to the second and third levels. There’s also similarities in terms of rushing upside. Simpson was the most productive rusher among top quarterbacks in the 2022 cycle with over 1,000 yards as a senior. We saw Corral handle a heavy rushing load in Ole Miss’ offense with 614 yards and 11 scores on the ground.

Ty Simpson leads team to state championship win

Charles Power•

Ty Simpson capped off his strong senior season by leading his Martin (Tenn.) Westview team to a 55-14 win over Hampton in the Tennessee 2A state title game. Simpson finished the game 5-10 for 99 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions. He ran for 181 yards and two scores on just ten carries. Three of Simpson's incompletions were due to pass interference calls or drops. The majority of Simpson's passing yardage came on the first two drives- he hit two pretty, well thrown deep balls for touchdowns. He ran with ease for much of the rest of the game, ripping off several long runs on scrambles. Simpson showed some strong movement skills and vision in the open field.
