After initially having trouble getting playing time because of injuries, Zimmerman became a regular starter in 2016. He made 38 starts as FC Dallas won the Supporters’ Shield and the U.S. Open Cup to complete the hat trick. After being traded to Los Angeles FC, an expansion team, in December 2017, Zimmerman helped the team win the Supporters’ Shield in 2019.
