Denver Broncos Safety Justin Simmons and wife Taryn Simmons welcomed their first child on Friday. Welcome to the world Laney Rae.

Justin Simmons and his wife, Taryn Simmons, welcomed a new member to their family. Broncos Country, welcome Laney Rae Simmons.

The couple welcomed a baby girl to the world on Friday. It is Justin Simmons’ first child.

Justin Simmons had quite the season in 2017. He had 68 tackles, one sack, and two interceptions. One of those interceptions was returned for a touchdown against the Miami Dolphins.

However, he suffered an ankle injury towards the end of the season that placed him on injured reserve.

The former third round pick will look to find success in his third season in the NFL. Hopefully he can use this summer to become a father to his little girl before training camp begins.

Some Broncos players expressed their congrats to the safety on the news of the birth of his baby girl.

Some Broncos fans even chimed in on the news.

Fatherhood is one of the greatest gifts for a man in his lifetime. Justin Simmons will get to experience it for the first time. I have yet to experience the joys of fatherhood. But I know for a fact that Justin Simmons will enjoy it.

I am very excited to see what he can do for the Denver Broncos in year three. The team will be without Aqib Talib this season, so his presence for the football will be relied on more than ever. The No Fly Zone might have lost some of its mojo, but it will depend on if this unit can get things together.

Congrats to Justin and Taryn on the birth of their child. Wishing you nothing but happiness in parenthood.
