Simpson signed with the Packers on Monday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

The safety had a tryout with Green Bay on Wednesday. Simpson, who was previously dealing with a hamstring injury, was waived from injured reserve with a settlement by the Jets in early August before trying out for the Texans less than a week later. A 2024 fifth-round pick of the Colts, Simpson did not see action last season, though he may now get a chance to compete for a depth and special-teams role with the Packers.
