The Green Bay Packers dedicated Day 3 of the NFL Draft to enhancing the depth of their front seven, yet their efforts might not be over. One particular social media post has sparked speculation. Isaiah Simmons, a former eighth-overall pick with skills at both linebacker and safety positions, paid a pre-draft visit to the Packers.

His recent post on X (formerly Twitter) has stirred excitement among fans. Simmons shared an emoji officially known as a “mouse trap emoji,” which might imply different things, but let’s be real: it resembles cheese in a box. To Packers fans, a cheese emoji is akin to the Bat Signal, prompting them to wonder if he’s hinting at a potential free-agency move.

Simmons’ enigmatic post has caught the eye of Packers supporters. He visited Green Bay less than two weeks ago, which makes the timing intriguing. During the NFL Draft, the Packers didn’t significantly bolster their linebacker depth, aside from selecting Oklahoma State’s Collin Oliver, who is more of a hybrid edge/linebacker.

It remains uncertain what role he will assume in Jeff Hafley’s defensive scheme. Hafley’s 4-3 system necessitates strong linebacker depth, and the Packers lost Eric Wilson to the Minnesota Vikings in free agency. While Green Bay re-signed Isaiah McDuffie and brought back Kristian Welch, there’s undoubtedly space for another linebacker. Simmons could potentially fill that gap, and his versatility would be attractive to the Packers.

Over five NFL seasons, Simmons has recorded 8.5 sacks, 15 tackles for loss, five interceptions, and nine forced fumbles. Additionally, he can contribute on special teams. Wilson led Green Bay in special teams snaps last season, and Simmons could help address that void. Are we overanalyzing an emoji? Absolutely. Does it confirm he’s joining the Packers? Not necessarily. However, the team did meet with him earlier this month, and it would be a logical move. If it happens, remember this impressive detective work.
