The Facts:
If Jeff Garcia is to become the Bucs' starting QB like many people have predicted, he'll have to take the job from Simms. During this week's OTAs, Simms took snaps with the first team, while Garcia got most of his work with the second and third teams. "I've been getting a good amount of first team reps," Simms said.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Simms admitted he had a little rust due to the fact he hasn't played since he ruptured his spleen in the Sept. 24 game against Carolina, but he's experiencing no problems with his body. ... Garcia, meanwhile, is getting a reminder of just how involved Gruden's offense is and how much work he has ahead of him. "The mental part of the game, I need to get under wraps so I can just come out on the field and react. It's still a work in progress for me. ..." Stay tuned. We'll obviously be hearing more on the Bucs' QB situation in coming months.
