Social media reacts: Isaiah Simmons traded to the New York Giants
Isaiah Simmons has joined DeAndre Hopkins as a former Clemson star to be traded by the Arizona Cardinals this offseason.
Thursday reports released that the Cardinals have traded Simmons to the New York Giants for a 2024 7th-round pick. This is not only a steal for the Giants but arguably the best situation Simmons could have found himself in.
The Giants defense needs help in the secondary and at linebacker. While I can’t say for sure how defensive coordinator Wink Martindale will implement Simmons into the defense, I know he is one of the best options to get the most out of the young defender and help him develop into a star.
Social media reacted heavily to this news, with most seeing this as a great move for the Giants. Here is a look at how Twitter/X reacted to Isaiah Simmons being traded.
Gods plan🙏🏾 let’s get to work!! https://t.co/KQEkh2rE43

Simmons is truly one of the freakish atheltes in NFL combine history.
He ran 4.39 at 6'4, 238 pounds with 20 bench reps.
Big upside for NYG.https://t.co/f3J4lohfT3 pic.twitter.com/qSbGNKAZO8

Arizona Cardinals trade Isaiah Simmons this morning to the New York Giants.
I think the Giants got a steal of a very talented player that DC Wink Martindale will develop into a star.
