Report: Broncos activating S Justin Simmons for 'MNF'

The Denver Broncos are activating All-Pro safety Justin Simmons for Monday night's game against the Los Angeles Chargers, NFL Network reported.

Simmons has missed the past four games with an injured quad. Denver designated him for a return from injured reserve last week. He was hurt in the Broncos' season opener at Seattle.

Simmons, 28, had played in 66 straight games prior to the injury.

Simmons finished Week 1 with nine tackles and a fumble recovery. He returned the fumble 17 yards to set up one of two Broncos red-zone drives that ended in a fumble.

He has 474 career tackles and 21 interceptions in 92 games (82 starts), all with the Broncos. The 2020 Pro Bowl selection was selected in the third round of the 2016 draft by Denver.
