From what I remember that was a regular season game a couple years ago where Simmons was going for Ted's knees.
Don't think they had Tart at the time.

The coaches wouldn't sign him or even bring him in if they thought he was a cancer of any sort. When he has been focused, Tart has
played very well at times. In the end I think we are better rushing the passer from the interior going into this season than last for sure.
We will have to wait on seeing if we are better at stopping the run without Reader though. Bell being back and helping with alignment,
communication and us having a healthy Hubbard and Wilson should surely help against the run.
