Week 11 Injury Status and Other News
He was not listed on Friday's official injury report. [Thu Nov 19, 7:06 PM] Chris Simms The Associated Press reports Chris Simms is likely to start in Week 11 against the San Diego Chargers after taking snaps with the first team again Thursday, Nov. 19.Opinion (from The Upgrade/Downgrade/Waiver Report): Chris Simms stepped in for Denver against Washington once Kyle Orton was sidelined with an ankle injury late in the second quarter. Simms did not do very well in the second half as he was off target often, and when he did hit a receiver it was often dropped. Simms threw deep to Brandon Marshall once in the end zone, but it was easily intercepted. Orton may not be healthy enough to go next week, which makes Simms an interesting pickup especially in start-two QB leagues. Simms should play better with a full week of practice with the starters.

Game Summaries
Week 10 at WAS - Simms came in the second half of the game but did not look very good in relief of Kyle Orton. He hadn't played in nearly three years, and the rust was very evident from the first pass he attempted. Playing with the lead Simms seemed rattled by the Redskins, who stacked the line to stop the run and put the heat on the quarterback. Even when he did have time to throw most of his passes were high and off target. The one interception he threw was in the end zone and it was intended for Brandon Marshall. The play was there for Marshall to run a fade stop in the end zone. The play would have worked had Simms not thrown the ball into the middle of the end zone -- at least 5-yards away from Marshall -- where it was easily picked off by DeAngelo Hall. A backup quarterback should be mentally prepared because he can enter the game at any time. It looked like Simms was lost out on the field, and he didn't grasp the defensive looks the Redskins were showing.
