Simmons may not have Hardman's initial acceleration, but he's bigger and stronger and very fast. If you go back through and watch when he's gotten the ball, it takes a few steps but if he gets separation when he's up to speed few to none will run him down.
100 meters isn't a football time, but it is an indicator of speed and, to a lesser extent, acceleration. Here's Simmons' senior year. Consistently very fast except one outlier.

From a Reddit thread on 100m to 40 yd conversion
If I average all the times other than the 11.46 outlier, the avg is 10.78 (if you exclude the late season PR of 10.6 - it's still an average of 10.8)
So looks like that sub 4.5 time is pretty well in line with expectations.
