Simmons will have one year of eligibility remaining — the former four-star prospect transferred to Indiana last year, and played three seasons at North Carolina prior to that.
Simmons had 30 receptions for 516 yards and three touchdowns during his time in the Tar Heels program, with 14 starts.
Last year, he made 37 catches for 408 yards (both second-best on the team) with one touchdown for the Hoosiers. Simmons also had two carries for 54 yards.
