Simon Tremblay (born July 7, 2017) is an American football offensive lineman for the Myrtle Beach Buccaneers of the Developmental Simulation Football League (DSFL). He played college football for Université de Montréal (UdeM) and has declared his intent to enter the professional ranks next season.

Early years

Simon Tremblay was born in Laval, in the Greater Montreal area, in Canada. Tremblay is from a tough and quite poor neighborhood, his parents working in a factory with a very low salary. He quickly learned how to fight and stand up for himself, as fights were very often breaking out between the kids from his neighborhood. He was a quiet guy, but with how massive he was, he was not one to mess with. But, he wasn't the one to start the fight, he was really more of a friendly guy. He started playing football when he was in High school, because he was in the football program at the École Secondaire Curé-Antoine-Labelle. Even tough most kids of his age played mostly hockey, hockey wasn't interesting to him, he still much prefered football. At 13 years old, he was already six foot one and 200 pounds, and it gave him a massive advantage over the other . He was mainly playing running back at that time. While his career was going well in football, where he was absolutely dominating, his grades were going down. Tremblay had a lot of trouble in most subjects, the only thing he wanted to do was play football. He eventually figured out that he needed good grads to be able to go to college to play collegial football. With a lot of hard work, Tremblay eventually got his grades high enough to get in college.

College career

After working hard on his grades, Simon Tremblay was accepted at the Cégep du Vieux Montréal in Human Science. He was only in this program so he could play with the college's team, the Spartiates. He was again playing as a running back. In the three seasons he was playing there, he accumulated 2890 rushing yards, 62 receptions and 10 TDs in 47 games. After his 3 seasons, he moved on to University and was accepted in Criminology at the Université de Montréal, where he played for the Carabins as an offensive lineman. He changed position because his physical traits fitted more the offensive lineman positon than the running back position, and he wasn't the best running back available to the Carabins, so he had no other choice but to change. At that time, he was about six foot four and 340 pounds. The position switch ended up paying up for him. In two seasons he played with the Carabins, Tremblay accumulated 65 pancakes in 31 games and only 9 sacks allowed.

Professional career

DSFL career

Tremblay wasn't drafted into the DSFL. He was picked up on the waivers by the Myrtle Beach Buccaneers around the start of the regular season. Tremblay played 12 regular season games in the S20 season, only missing 2 of them. It was pretty difficult for him to get used to the DSFL. It's much harder than normal College Football, and it took Tremblay a couple games to get used to the DSFL level. In his first game, which saw the Buccaneers win 10 to 6 against the Tijuana Luchadores, Tremblay did not record a single pancake. It was only in his next game where Simon achieved 2 pancakes in a defeat against the Norfolk Seawolves. Tremblay's next game was not better either. In that game, Myrtle Beach lost 27 to 17 against the Minnesota Grey Ducks, and Simon allowed two sacks, the only two he allowed in the entire season. After that, Tremblay started to stabilize more his game, and ended his first season with 19 pancakes in 12 games. Myrtle Beach ended the season with a record of 12 wins and 2 losses, tied for the best record in the league with Minnesota. This allowed Tremblay to also get his first experience of the playoffs. In the first game, Myrtle Beach defeated Norfolk 43 to 10, and Tremblay completed three pancakes. The Buccaneers moved on to the finals against Minnesota, and they lost 28 to 3. Tremblay recorded 2 pancakes and a penalty, in a game that saw the Buccaneers accumulate 15 penalties. Tremblay was then drafted 25th overall to the Philadelphia Liberty. Tremblay will stay down at least another season in the DSFL, so that he can develop well before playing in the big league.
