2024 NFL Draft Prospect AJ Simon has passed away at 25
We are saddened to report that Hula Bowl Alumni and small school standout AJ Simon passed away last night at the age of 25. His coach made the announcement today via Twitter.
AJ Simon tore up college football this year becoming a terror for opposing quarterbacks. Simon would earn an invite to the Hula Bowl and dominate the week in Orlando.
It hurts me to type up this article, AJ recently sat down with NFL Draft Diamonds scout Jimmy Williams for this exclusive zoom interview.
Simon was gaining quite a bit of love from NFL teams. He was in New England last week on a Top-30 visit.
Please keep the Simon family in your prayers. May AJ Rest in Peace! We love you brother!
