Summary

Wide Receiver Rank: #94All Players: #270
A move to Minnesota and a full-time starting gig was supposed to take Simpson's game to a new level last season but that wasn't the case. Simpson didn't do much at all with the Vikings, catching just 26 passes in 14 games. He hit the 50-yard mark receiving just once all season. The Vikings struggled throwing the ball much of the year, though, which didn't help Simpson. He'll get a chance to redeem himself this season with the Vikings but nothing is certain with him at this point. He seems destined for backup duty more than anything. Simpson is a deep threat with pretty good size and speed. He lacks some strength, but has improved his route running some, which is a step in the right direction.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Simpson had his big chance last season but never got going. He isn't a guy to draft this year unless he starts getting consistent production at receiver. Until that happens, don't bother with him on your team. Simpson can improve on last season but expect around 400 or 500 yards with a few scores.

comments about Jerome Simpson

Notes

Minnesota Vikings WR Jerome Simpson says his new Tempurpedic mattress has helped stabilize his back and keep him in good posture. Simpson suffered a lower-back ailment, which turned out to be a nerve issue, that squashed his production for two months. 'It was more my push-off,' he said. 'I didn't really have my burst to be able to get away from my defenders when I needed to.' Simpson says he's back at 100 percent.

The Minnesota Vikings re-signed WR Jerome Simpson to an undisclosed deal.
Fantasy Impact: He was a bit of bust last season with the Vikings, so don't expect much of an improvement.

The Minnesota Vikings could consider re-signing impending free-agent WR Jerome Simpson if they are able to sign him to an inexpensive contract.

Impending free-agent WR Jerome Simpson (Vikings) had an injury-filled season, and he did little statistically when healthy. Simpson was also credited with four dropped balls. In addition, he missed a block which led to the season-ending injury to WR Percy Harvin (ankle). Simpson might return on another short-term deal at the right price, as he is not expected to have much value on the open market. However, the Vikings might just decide to move on after the disappointment of 2012.

Minnesota Vikings WR Jerome Simpson (back) is still being bothered by a disc injury in his back, according to head coach Leslie Frazier. Simpson has been a big disappointment with only 15 catches for 176 yards and no touchdowns in nine games this year. He hasn't had more than three catches in any game. 'You can't get around the injury,' Frazier said. 'It definitely has had an effect on his play. We're doing the best we can, he's doing the best he can and that play he made on the slant in (last Sunday's) game in the fourth quarter, that was a big play for us. We're going to need him to make some plays for us this Sunday. Give us whatever he can.' Simpson's speed has been affected, as well as his ability to cut and plant during his routes. He has yet to be told that he'll need offseason surgery, though.

Minnesota Vikings WR Jerome Simpson was credited with three dropped passes in the Week 12 game against the Chicago Bears. 'I'm frustrated just because we lost and how bad of a game I had,' Simpson said. 'I don't think I've ever had this many drops in a game before.'
