From the article

Simpson clearly is, which is why it made zero sense to play him for as little as he did Saturday. The rookie had just 12 pass attempts, completing eight for 73 yards with zero touchdowns or turnovers. He has stood out from the pack compared to his fellow first-year quarterbacks.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Simpson limited to 12 attempts despite strong preseason; coaching staff missed evaluation opportunity.

Simpson played only 12 pass attempts (8/12 for 73 yards, zero TDs/INTs) in the Rams' 34-0 win over the Saints despite standing out from fellow first-year quarterbacks through two preseason games (29/37 for 263 yards, 2 TDs). The source criticizes the coaching staff for not giving Simpson more reps to evaluate what the team has in him, noting it made zero sense to limit his snaps when he is clearly part of the team's long-term future, unlike backup Stetson Bennett who is wildly inconsistent and not part of long-term plans.
