Simon was added to the Patriots' injury report Thursday with an elbow issue, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Simon was still able to get in a limited practice Thursday, but his status bears watching. Chase Winovich and Deatrich Wise would be the likely recipients of extra playing time if the former Buckeye can't go.

Simon had three tackles (two solo), a sack and a forced fumble in Monday's win over the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

The New England defense terrorized QB Sam Darnold all night, and Simon contributed to that on the second play of the second quarter with a strip sack. The 29-year-old has 19 tackles (10 solo), three sacks and an interception this season, but he's totaled only 57 defensive snaps over the last three games.

Simon notched two tackles (both solo), one defended pass and one interception during Thursday's 35-14 win over the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Simon recorded the second interception of his seven-year career Thursday. After being held off the stat sheet Week 5 against Washington, Simon has managed to bounce back to his usual disruptive level. He'll benefit from an extended rest period before the Patriots face the Jets in Week 7.

Simon recorded six tackles (five solo), a sack and a pass defensed across 57 defensive snaps in Sunday's win over the Bills.

EDGE Analysis

Simon was constant disrupter on the field Sunday, as he tied for the second-most tackles on the team. Couple that with a sack and a pivotal third-down goal line tackle and it may have been Simon's best performance of the year. He'll look to keep up the level of play this Sunday against the Redskins.

Simon made five tackles (two solo) in Sunday's 30-14 win over the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Simon posted a sack in Week 2, and he followed that up with a solid tackle count. The 28-year-old defensive end was never a consistent pass rusher, however, as he never posted more than five sacks in any of his previous six seasons.

Simon racked up one solo tackle, one sack and one defended pass during Sunday's 43-0 win over the Dolphins.

EDGE Analysis

Simon managed to make a disruptive impact Week 2 despite playing just 34 percent (21 snaps) of New England's snaps on defense. He'll attempt to keep his momentum up heading into Sunday's tilt against the Jets.

Simon agreed to terms Wednesday with the Patriots on a two-year contract, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Simon was cut by the Colts ahead of last season but performed well upon landing a part-time role with the Patriots in late September. He played in 11 games in 2018, accumulating 17 tackles (eight solo) and two sacks. Look for the Ohio State product to again have a role in the Patriots' edge-rushing rotation while also logging snaps on special teams.

Simon (shoulder) will suit up for Monday's game against the Bills.

EDGE Analysis

Simon was not listed on the Patriots' injury report prior to kickoff indicating that he'll be ready for the divisional affair. The Ohio State product has missed most of October but should re-assume his role as a depth outside linebacker moving forward.

Simon (shoulder) was downgraded to out for Sunday's game at Chicago.

EDGE Analysis

Simon was originally listed as questionable after being a limited participant at practice this week. The 28-year-old will miss his second straight game after suffering the shoulder injury against the Colts in Week 5.

Simon (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears.

EDGE Analysis

Simon has not retaken the field since suffering a shoulder injury in Week 5, and was a limited participant in Friday's practice. The 28-year-old depth linebacker will return to a rotational defensive role when healthy, but it remains to be seen whether Simon will suit up against Chicago on Sunday.
