While we will strive to make it amazing for Simon, we can’t discount the enormous impact he will have on our student-athletes and program. We are excited to welcome Simon and his family with open arms and look forward to Aggie Nation doing the same!” Simon lives with his parents, Rachel and Joshua, and three siblings in Wellsville, Utah, and was diagnosed with lymphoma earlier this year and has been undergoing chemotherapy since. On Wednesday, Simon was introduced to the team and was given his own jersey during the post-practice huddle. Simon will continue to be a part of the Utah State football team, including participating in the team’s national signing day in December.
