Timeline
Kenneth Wayne Sims (born October 31, 1959) is a former American college and professional football player who was a defensive end in the National Football League (NFL) for eight seasons during the 1980s.
He played college football at Texas, where he was a two-time consensus All-American.
As a senior in 1981, Sims became the first Longhorn to win the Lombardi Award, was named the 1981 UPI Lineman of the Year, was the top defensive vote-recipient for the Heisman Trophy and earned all-conference and All-American status once again.
In 1981, he helped Texas to finish 10–1–1, win the 1982 Cotton Bowl Classic, and finish ranked second nationally, their best end-of-year ranking since 1970.
Sims was the first overall pick in the 1982 NFL Draft, and played professionally for the New England Patriots including the season they went to Super Bowl XX.
Sims was born in Kosse, Texas.
In his junior year at Groesbeck High School, Sims quit football but then realized that football was indeed for him and went on to spend his senior year playing linebacker, fullback and tight end, rather than as a tackle.
At Texas, Sims spent his freshman year learning the basics of the tackle position.
He made 131 tackles, and was named All-Conference and an All-American.
Sims was the first overall pick in the 1982 NFL Draft, only the third Longhorn to be selected with the first pick.
In his rookie year, he came in fifth in the voting for the NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year.
With the New England Patriots in the NFL, Sims played 74 career games and had 17 sacks over eight NFL seasons.
Sims suffered multiple injuries to his knees, legs and back throughout his career, limiting his play such that the only complete season he played was 1984.
His best year was 1985, when he managed 5.5 sacks despite only playing in 13 games after he broke his leg late in the regular season.
He did not get to play in Super Bowl XX, which the Patriots lost.
Following the 1985 season, the Patriots instituted a voluntary drug testing program after six players, including Sims, admitted to struggling with drugs over the prior years.
Sims supported the program and said that he'd gotten himself clean after going through a team-supported drug rehabilitation program.
He had surgery in 1987 for his back.
After that season he signed a one-year, incentives based contract with the Patriots but he ruptured his Achilles tendon in the opening game of the year and missed the remainder of the season.
He was signed to another one-year contract in 1989.
He played most of the 1989 season, but missed the last game with an injured knee.
In 1990, Sims was arrested in Austin, Texas, and charged with possession of cocaine.
He was released by the Patriots 16 days later for failing to stay in proper shape.
In 1992, after spending time in rehab, Sims signed a one-year contract with the Buffalo Bills—by this time he was being described as a recovering alcoholic; he was waived before the start of the season.
