News

  • Back at practice

    Phillips (undisclosed) was activated off the active/PUP list by the Chargers on Monday.

    Analysis: The linebacker was placed on the list in July around the start of training camp. Phillips signed with the Chargers in March after playing 363 special-teams snaps and 25 defensive snaps with the Texans during the 2024 regular season, making 16 total tackles (eight solo). The former Bill, Jet and Raven has predominantly played on special teams throughout his five-year NFL career.

  • Not practicing to start camp

    Phillips (undisclosed) was placed on the active/PUP list Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Phillips joined the Chargers this offseason after spending 2024 in Houston. Assuming he's able to get back on the field, he'll serve almost exclusively in a special teams role.

  • Comes off PUP list

    The Texans activated Phillips (shoulder) off the active/PUP list Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

  • Starting camp on PUP

    The Texans placed Phillips (shoulder) on the active/PUP list Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Analysis: The 27-year-old played in all 17 regular-season games for Baltimore last season, but he missed both playoff contests with a shoulder injury that apparently still isn't 100 percent healthy. Phillips signed a one-year deal with Houston in the offseason and will serve as a depth linebacker while filling a key role on special teams.

  • Finds new home

    Phillips (shoulder) is set to sign a one-year contract with the Texans, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Phillips has spent the past two seasons in Baltimore, mostly contributing in a special teams role. He'll likely be competing for a similar role in Houston while serving as a depth option in the Texans' linebacker corps.

  • Officially out Sunday

    Phillips (shoulder) has been ruled inactive ahead of Sunday's AFC Championship Game versus Kansas City.

    Analysis: Phillips is dealing with a shoulder issue, and he was deemed doubtful to play on Friday's final injury report. The reserve linebacker now will miss his second playoff game in a row while tending to this injury. Phillips' absence will leave Baltimore without one of its core special teamers, as the 27-year-old logged 24 tackles while playing primarily on special teams across 17 appearances this season.

  • Inactive Saturday

    Phillips (shoulder) will not play in Saturday's tilt against the Texans.

    Analysis: Phillips injured his shoulder in the Ravens' regular-season finale versus the Steelers. It is severe enough to keep him sidelined two weeks later in the divisional-round game versus Houston. His absence is not expected to have an impact on the Ravens' defense, as he was primarily a depth option at linebacker.

  • Uncertain for divisional round

    Phillips (shoulder) is considered questionable to play Saturday versus the Texans.

    Analysis: Phillips suffered a shoulder injury in Baltimore's regular-season finale versus the Steelers and even after the team's wild-card round bye week, he's still uncertain for their divisional-round matchup with Houston. The linebacker was unable to practice in any capacity this week, leaving his status up in the air for Saturday's contest.

  • Will play Sunday

    Phillips (should) is active Sunday against the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Phillips logged back-to-back DNPs after being a late addition to the team's injury report. However, the Illinois product will still suit up, which should be good news for Baltimore's linebacker corps.

  • Could miss Week 17

    Phillips (shoulder) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Phillips popped up on the Ravens' injury report as a non-participant in Thursday's practice, and his chances to play Sunday seem to be getting slimmer after recording another DNP on Friday. The 27-year-old linebacker has played almost strictly on special teams this season (335 of 364 total snaps), recording nine total tackles.

  • Sticking in Balitmore

    Baltimore is expected to re-sign Phillips to a one-year deal Sunday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: The undrafted linebacker out of Illinois was a special-teams ace for the Ravens in 2022, posting five tackles (three solo) across 16 appearances. He saw only one snap on defense last year.

  • Playing Sunday

    Phillips (quadriceps) is active for Sunday's game against the Steelers.

    Analysis: Phillips is now slated to return to game action this weekend, after he had missed Baltimore's Week 13 matchup versus Denver as a result of a quadriceps issue. He'll likely slot back into his usual role as a special-teams contributor.

  • Trending toward return

    Phillips (quadriceps) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Steelers.

    Analysis: Phillips was forced to miss Baltimore's Week 13 loss to Denver due to a quadriceps injury. However, he turned in a pair of limited practices to begin the week and a full session Friday. His status won't become official until shortly before Sunday's kickoff, but he appears to be trending toward a return.

  • Inactive this weekend

    Phillips (quadriceps) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

    Analysis: Phillips failed to practice all week leading up to Sunday's contest versus Denver due to an apparent quadriceps issue, and he'll now miss his first game of the 2022-23 campaign as a result. His absence shouldn't alter Baltimore's defensive game plan given that the 26-year-old has strictly operated as a special-teams contributor this season.

  • Productive in blowout loss

    Phillips totaled seven tackles (four solo), two tackles for loss and a sack in Sunday's 54-13 loss to New England.

    Analysis: Phillips stepped up with fellow linebacker C.J. Mosley sidelined by a hamstring injury. He has occupied a reserve role for most of the the season, but Phillips has proven capable of filling in productively when injuries strike. Phillips' sack was the first of his career.

  • Signs with Gang Green

    The Jets signed Phillips from their practice squad to their active roster Tuesday, Eric Allen of the Jets' official website reports.

    Analysis: Phillips was a practice-squad promotion the past two games and has registered 12 tackles this season. The 24-year-old linebacker played just two defensive snaps in Week 2 after registering 57 defensive snaps in Week 1. It's unclear what type of role he will play moving forward.

  • Returns to practice squad

    Phillips was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

    Analysis: Phillips led the Jets with 11 tackles (three solo) after entering the season opener when Jamien Sherwood left with an ankle injury. The 24-year-old showed well and could start again for the Jets, and he should be on IDP radars.

  • Signs with Jets

    Phillips signed a contract with the Jets on Tuesday, Randy Lange of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Phillips has been a bit of a journeyman to start his NFL career, logging stints with the Falcons and Bills in his first two seasons. He has played in only two NFL games, with all 14 of his snaps coming on special teams, so he will most likely be in line for a special teams role to begin his stint in New York.

  • Waived by Bills

  • Back from IR

    The Bills activated Phillips (quadriceps) from injured reserve Saturday.

    Analysis: Phillips logged two weeks of practice and will return to the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Seahawks. His return is well-timed, as starting weak-side linebacker Matt Milano (pectoral) was placed on IR on Saturday. Phillips will serve as linebacker depth behind expected starter Andre Smith for the time being.

  • Tagged as questionable

    Phillips (quadriceps) is questionable for Tuesday's game versus the Titans.

    Analysis: Phillips was a full participant in Saturday's practice, indicating that he should play if he can avoid a setback over the next few days. The 24-year-old linebacker's availability is important since Matt Milano (pectoral) has already been ruled out, so Phillips could handle a decent workload Tuesday.

  • Back to full practice

    Phillips (quadriceps) was a full participant during Thursday's practice, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: This is great news for the Illinois product, as he logged his first full practice session since Week 1. Phillips has missed three games since then; however, he appears in line for a depth role at strongside linebacker for Tuesday's game against Tennessee.

  • Ruled out for Week 2

    Phillips (quadriceps) won't suit up against the Dolphins on Sunday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Phillips saw work only on special teams before being forced out of action Week 1 against the Jets, but his lack of availability will be a significant blow to Buffalo's linebacker corps with starters Matt Milano (hamstring) and Tremaine Edmunds (shoulder) also ruled out. A.J. Klein, Tyler Matakevich and Tyrel Dodson are currently the only healthy linebackers on Buffalo's roster.
