2025 Fantasy Outlook
Sims entered the previous campaign as Green Bay's third tight end, and while he filled the No. 2 spot behind Tucker Kraft while Luke Musgrave was sidelined due to injury, he finished it in the same spot after Musgrave's late-season return. All three players remain in Green Bay, and all figure to fill similar roles, which means Sims, who has tallied just eight receptions across 34 career appearances, will remain limited mainly to blocking duties.
