Philips was signed to the Eagles' practice squad Wednesday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Analysis: Philips joined the Eagles' practice squad ahead of the season and will now return to the team's practice unit again. The 25-year-old will provide Philadelphia with an additional depth option at wide receiver moving forward.

Joins Eagles' practice squad
Philips was signed to the Eagles practice squad Tuesday.
Analysis: Philips was let go by the Titans on Thursday after reaching an injury settlement with the team following a hamstring issue. The wide receiver now appears to be back in good health, joining Philadelphia's practice squad after reeling in 15 passes for 181 yards while appearing in nine games with Tennessee in 2023.

Reaches injury settlement
The Titans waived Philips (hamstring) from injured reserve Thursday with an injury settlement, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Philips has dealt with multiple injuries since being selected by the Titans in the fifth round of the 2022 NFL Draft. Once healthy, he'll look to catch on with a team looking to add depth to its wide receiver corps.

Reverts to injured reserve
Philips (hamstring) reverted to Tennessee's injured reserve Wednesday.
Analysis: Philips will stick around with the Titans despite having been waived with an injury designation Tuesday. The 2022 fifth-round pick will now shift his focus to getting healthy.

Waived with injury designation
The Titans have waived Philips (hamstring) with an injury designation, Nick Gray of the Nashville Tennessean reports.
Analysis: Injuries continue to be an issue for the 2022 fifth-rounder, who was limited to 13 contests over his first two pro campaigns. This time around, the UCLA product is dealing with a hamstring issue that caused him to miss Tennessee's final two preseason games. Following Tuesday's transactions, the team's WR corps is comprised of Calvin Ridley, DeAndre Hopkins, Tyler Boyd, Treylon Burks, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and Jha'Quan Jackson.

Probably out at New Orleans
Philips (hamstring) is unlikely to play in the Titans' preseason finale at the Saints, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Phillips has been sitting out of practices with a lingering hamstring injury, and now it looks like it could keep him out until at least the regular season. It's no sure thing that he'll make Tennessee's final 53-man roster, though, and players like Sam Schnee may get more opportunities to make an impression if Philips is out.

Has hamstring injury
Philips missed practice Thursday with a hamstring injury, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Philips has a history of hamstring issues after spending a good chunk of his 2022 rookie season on injured reserve with the same injury. He also missed time at the end of last season with a hamstring strain. Philips has also dealt with knee and shoulder injuries as a pro, missing a total of 23 regular-season games across two campaigns. Philips' spotty medical history and the fact he's missing time once again makes him an uncertain proposition for a roster spot.

Not assured roster spot
Philips is expected to enter training camp fighting for a roster spot, John Glennon of the Nashville Post reports.
Analysis: Philips, a 2022 fifth-round pick, secured 15 of 22 targets for 181 yards across nine appearances last season, and he never managed to play more than 50 percent of offensive snaps. With Calvin Ridley and Tyler Boyd joining DeAndre Hopkins atop the depth chart, and 2022 first-round pick Treylon Burks still vying for opportunities, Phillips finds himself competing for limited reserve roles, and rookie sixth-round pick Jha'Quan Jackson also projects as a slot option and return man.

Slight improvement in second season
Philips recorded 15 receptions on 22 targets for 181 yards across nine games with the Titans in 2023. He also had 13 yards as a kick returner and 23 as a punt returner.
Analysis: Philips had the chance to win the starting slot role during training camp, but he was sidelined by a knee injury and wasn't able to take the field until Week 5. He never really hit his stride from there, failing to play half of the offensive snaps in any game this season. However, he still managed to double the production from his rookie season and could see another modest uptick in his numbers in 2024 if he can remain healthy.

Practices in full Wednesday
Philips (hamstring) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Philips was inactive for three of the last four games for Tennessee. He's tumbled down the depth chart and dealt with injuries seemingly all season. Philips has drawn 19 targets across eight games, posting a scoreless 13-166-0 receiving line.

Ruled out for Week 16
Philips (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against Seattle, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Philips was able to practice in a limited capacity Thursday, but he'll ultimately be sidelined with his hamstring injury in Week 16. Colton Dowell and Mason Kinsey are both candidates to see an uptick in usage at wide receiver versus the Seahawks.

Back at practice
Philips (hamstring) was a limited participant in practice Thursday after missing Wednesday's session, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: The depth wide receiver may be trending toward returning after missing last Sunday's loss to the Texans. Philips has 13 catches for 166 yards and no touchdowns this season.

Still dealing with hamstring injury
Philips (hamstring) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Philips sat out of Sunday's loss versus the Texans due to a hamstring issue, and he's now missing Tennessee's first practice of the new week. He'll likely need to practice in some capacity Thursday or Friday to have a chance to play in Week 16.

Ruled out for Week 15
Philips (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Texans, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: It's been somewhat of a lost season for the second-year wideout. Philips opened the season on injured reserve with a knee issue and was deemed a Week 13 healthy scratch before pulling his hamstring last Sunday. On the year, Philips has 13 catches for 166 scoreless yards. DeAndre Hopkins, Treylon Burks, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and Chris Moore will continue to soak up the receiver snaps for the Titans.

Misses practice Thursday
Philips (hamstring) did not participate in practice Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: The depth wide receiver also missed Wednesday's session. Philips played on three offensive snaps in the Titans' Week 14 win over the Dolphins and was a healthy inactive for the team's Week 13 loss to the Colts. The second-year pro has 13 catches for 166 yards in 2023.

Misses practice Wednesday
Philips (hamstring) didn't participate in Wednesday's walk-through practice, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: The second-year receiver missed time earlier in the season with a knee injury and has also dealt with shoulder issues in 2023. He was a healthy inactive for the Week 13 loss to the Colts before playing just three offensive snaps in Monday's 28-27 win over the Dolphins. Philips has 13 catches for 166 scoreless yards on 19 targets this season.

Suits up Monday
Philips is active for Monday night's game against the Dolphins, John Glennon of NashvillePost.com reports.
Analysis: Philips was a healthy scratch Week 13 against the Colts, but he'll be back in the mix Monday. In the process, Philips will provide the Titans with wide receiver depth, as well as offer the team an option in the return game. In seven games this season, Philips has logged a 13-166-0 line on 19 targets.

Surprise healthy scratch
Philips (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Colts.
Analysis: Philips has been active for every game since Week 4, and he's been one of Tennessee's more productive receivers for brief stretches this season. However, he's seen his snap rate dip in each of Tennessee's last two contests, and he's now inactive with the return of Treylon Burks (concussion).

No contribution to win
Philips recorded one catch on two targets for negative three yards in Sunday's 17-10 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: Philips saw a season-low snap rate on offense of 23 percent and was on the field for only 12 snaps. As a result, he was limited to only one catch for the second consecutive game and for the fourth time in seven contests this season.

Makes one catch
Philips recorded one catch (on one target) for 10 yards in Sunday's 34-14 loss to the Jaguars.
Analysis: Philips saw a downturn in his involvement in the Tennessee offense, as he was on the field for a season-low 10 snaps. He had previously shown some rapport with quarterback Will Levis, combining to record 129 receiving yards across his previous two contests. The depressed state of the Titans offense will create inconsistencies in Philips' performance, but he should have the chance to bounce back in a Week 12 matchup against Carolina.

Team-high yardage tally Sunday
Philips secured three of five targets for 61 yards in the Titans' 20-6 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Analysis: Philips was able to pace the Titans in receiving yards for the second straight game on an afternoon where Will Levis threw for just 199 yards. The sure-handed wideout seems to have good chemistry with the rookie signal-caller, however, posting a 10-153 line over the three games Levis has seen action in. Philips will aim to carry over the momentum into a Week 11 road matchup against a porous Jaguars secondary.

Paces pass catchers in loss
Philips secured four of five targets for 68 yards in the Titans' 20-16 loss to the Steelers on Thursday night.
Analysis: Philips tied for team lead in receptions with DeAndre Hopkins while setting the pace with a yardage total that also served as a career high. The second-year UCLA product and rookie signal-caller Will Levis showed excellent chemistry throughout the night, following a Week 8 matchup against the Falcons when Philips posted a then-season-best 3-24 line on three targets. If Levis continues as the Titans quarterback in a Week 10 road matchup against the Buccaneers, Philips could continue seeing his…read more

Key error on special teams
Philips recorded one reception on two targets for six yards in Sunday's 24-16 loss to the Ravens.
Analysis: Philips appeared in his second game of the season and managed a fairly significant increase in snap rate, jumping from 24 to 46 percent. However, his production remained minimal and his performance was defined by a muffed punt that allowed the Ravens to kick a field goal just before halftime. He returned to punt return duties thereafter, so his role on special teams seems secure. On the other hand, Philips will likely continue to see minimal targets.

Limited role in season debut
Philips (shoulder) did not record a catch (on one target) in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Colts.
Analysis: Philips was activated from injured reserve this week to make his season debut. As could be expected, he was limited in his role, playing only 14 offensive snaps and one on special teams. Philips showed some rapport with Ryan Tannehill early in his rookie campaign in 2022, so it will be worth watching his role as he gets back into game shape.

Activated from IR
Tennessee activated Philips (knee) from injured reserve on Saturday, Ben Arthur of FoxSports.com reports.
Analysis: Philips began the regular season on IR after suffering an MCL injury in a preseason contest versus the Vikings. He appears to be fully recovered from the issue, as he was able to practice in full each day this week. Philips caught eight of 13 targets for 78 yards over four games in an injury-plagued rookie campaign last year, and he'll now look to work his way up a receiver depth chart that's headed by DeAndre Hopkins. Philips could play more than a minor role in his season debut Sunday with…read more

Full practice again but still on IR
Philips (knee) was a full participant in all three of Tennessee's practices heading into Sunday's game against the Colts, but he has yet to be activated from injured reserve, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Philips told Wyatt that he feels good about his chances of playing. The Titans opened up the 21-day window to activate Philips from injured reserve earlier in the week after he sat out the first four games of the season. If Tennessee brings Philips back to the active roster prior to Sunday's game, the 2022 sixth-round draft pick out of UCLA would likely serve as the slot receiver and could be used as a returner.

Philips (knee) was a full participant in practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Philips was placed on injured reserve to begin the season, and after missing the mandatory four games, the receiver had his 21-day evaluation window opened Monday. Given that he's already beginning Week 5 prep as a full participant, Philips looks like he'll have a good chance to play Sunday at Indianapolis, provided he doesn't experience any complications with his knee during practices Thursday and Friday.

Designated to return from IR
Philips (knee) was designated to return from injured reserve Monday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: The Titans will now have a 21-day window to evaluate Philips for a return to the 53-man active roster, but he'll have to remain on IR for the rest of the 2023 campaign if he isn't reinstated during that three-week period. The wide receiver is recovering from an MCL injury he suffered during the team's second preseason game Aug. 19. When available, Philips could have a role as a return specialist while also serving as a depth option behind DeAndre Hopkins and Treylon Burks (knee) on offense.

Expected to practice next week
Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said Friday that he expects Philips (knee) to begin practicing next week, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Philips opened the season on injured reserve with an MCL injury but will be eligible to make his season debut in Week 5 against the Colts. The slot receiver isn't on fantasy radars outside of the deepest of formats, but once healthy, Philips could unseat Nick Westbrook-Ikhine for the No. 3 wideout role behind DeAndre Hopkins and Treylon Burks (knee).

Officially on IR
Philips (knee) was placed on injured reserve by the Titans on Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: As a result, Philips, who is bouncing back from an MCL injury, will miss at least the first four games of the coming season. Once the 2022 fifth-rounder is back in action, he should have an opportunity to claim a key role of of the slot with the Titans. In Philips' looming absence, Chris Moore and/or Nick Westbrook-Ikhine are candidates to see added reps alongside top WRs DeAndre Hopkins and Treylon Burks.

Moved to IR
The Titans are expected to place Philips (knee) on injured reserve prior to Week 1, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Once the transaction becomes official, Philips will be ineligible for the first four games of the season, with Oct. 8 at Indianapolis marking his earliest possible date for a 2023 debut. The 2022 fifth-round pick played only four games as a rookie while battling shoulder and hamstring injuries, but earlier this summer he seemed to have a shot at roles as the No. 3 receiver and punt returner.

No timetable for return
Philips, who injured his MCL during the Titans' second preseason game on Aug. 19, continues to miss practice, Nick Suss of the Tennessean reports.
Analysis: The report notes that Philips was sporting a knee brace in the locker room Monday. He also doesn't have a timeline for his return and is taking things "day-by-day" until he's ready to get back on the field. At this stage, Philips' Week 1 status is cloudy, but it's possible there will be added context on that front after the Titans announce their moves in conjunction with Tuesday's deadline to set their initial 53-man roster.

Remains sidelined
Philips (knee) remained sidelined during Wednesday's practice, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Philips suffered a MCL injury during Saturday's preseason game against the Vikings, and while the Titans haven't outlined a timetable for his return to action, Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com suggests that the wideout could miss up to six weeks. With Treylon Burks (knee) dealing with a sprained LCL, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and/or Chris Moore are candidates to see added opportunities alongside DeAndre Hopkins as long as Burks and Philips continue to miss time.

Reportedly suffers MCL injury
Philips suffered an MCL injury during Saturday's game against the Vikings, Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com reports.
Analysis: We'll await further details from the team, but Kuharsky suggests that Philips could miss some time as a result of the issue. With Treylon Burks dealing with a sprained LCL, the Titans wide receiver depth behind DeAndre Hopkins is currently taxed. In the event that one or both of the injured pass catchers are out or limited at the start of the regular season, added work would be available for Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and/or Chris Moore.

Injures knee Saturday
Philips suffered a knee injury during Saturday's preseason game at Minnesota, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Prior to his departure midway through the first quarter, Philips had one punt return for two yards. Neither DeAndre Hopkins nor Treylon Burks (knee) suited up Saturday, so the Titans' remaining available wide receivers are Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Chris Moore and Racey McMath, among others.

In punt return mix
Philips is listed as the top punt returner on the Titans' initial unofficial depth chart, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Meanwhile, Philips is listed behind top wideouts DeAndre Hopkins and Treylon Burks, who are listed as being backed up by Chris Moore and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine. That said, we'd expect Philips, a 2022 fifth-rounder, to see his share of snaps out of the slot this coming season after being limited to eight catches (on 13 targets) for 78 yards in four games as a rookie. In that context, if the UCLA product can avoid injuries, he could emerge as a fantasy option in deeper PPR formats in 2023.

Favorite for slot role
Philips projects as the Titans' primary slot receiver entering OTAs, Mike Moraitis of USA Today reports.
Analysis: Philips was a standout in training camp and the preseason of his rookie season, though his 2022 campaign was ultimately derailed by shoulder and hamstring issues. Back to full health, Philips should have a relatively clear path to the slot role in Tennessee, as the team failed to make substantial additions to its wide receiver corps during the offseason while also losing Robert Woods. In addition to being unproven, Philips could be held back as the team often turns to two tight-end sets, and…read more

Not close to return
Head coach Mike Vrabel said Monday that Phillips (hamstring) is not close to returning from injured reserve, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reports.
Analysis: Given Vrabel's comments, Phillips can safely be ruled out for Thursday's matchup against Dallas. The rookie fifth-round pick caught eight of 13 targets for 78 yards through his first four appearances, but he's been on IR since with a hamstring injury. It's unclear when Phillips will be able to suit up again, but the wideout is trending toward sitting out the final two games of the regular season.

Not on track for Week 12 return
Head coach Mike Vrabel said Tuesday that he doesn't expect to see Philips (hamstring) at practice this week ahead of Sunday's game versus Cincinnati, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Although Philips is now technically eligible to rejoin the 53-man roster after spending the Titans' past four games on injured reserve, he'll probably have to wait until at least Week 13 at Philadelphia to be activated. Even once he's back, the rookie fifth-round draft pick doesn't have a clear path to consistent playing time as long as Treylon Burks, Robert Woods and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine remain healthy.

Analysis: Philips showed up on Tennessee's injury report last Friday with an ankle issue, which left him inactive in Week 7 against the Colts.

Philips (hamstring) is out for Sunday's matchup against the Colts, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Philips picked up the hamstring injury during the Titans' week of practice and could log only a limited session Friday. He'll be held out of his second game this season, as he also missed Week 3 due to a shoulder issue. Cody Hollister could see an increased role, though the Titans' pass volume will likely be too low for Hollister to see many targets.

Tending to hamstring issue
Philips is listed as questionable Sunday against the Colts due to a hamstring injury, John Glennon of SI.com reports.
Analysis: Philips already has missed one game this season with a shoulder issue, and his status for Week 7 now is in peril after he logged a limited practice Friday due to a new health concern. If he's able to suit up this weekend, he'll be well behind the Titans' top wide receivers, Robert Woods and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, even with rookie Treylon Burks (toe) on injured reserve.

Makes one catch
Philips recorded one reception on two targets for seven yards in Sunday's 21-17 win over the Commanders.
Analysis: Philips saw a jump in his snap rate due to the absence of Treylon Burks (toe), but he was still relatively uninvolved in the offense. Since recording six catches for 66 yards in his first game as a pro, Philips has only two receptions for 12 yards across his last three matchups.

Philips (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Indianapolis, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Philips has been dealing with a shoulder issue for three weeks running, playing 23 percent of snaps on offense Week 2 before sitting out this past Sunday versus the Raiders. He was limited in all three practices this week, even donning a non-contact yellow jersey at Friday's session. The status of the rookie fifth-round pick will be confirmed, one way or another, about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Philips (shoulder) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' officials site reports.
Analysis: Philips, who was inactive for last week's win over the Raiders after heading into the contest listed as doubtful, sported what Wyatt described as a "yellow caution jersey" during Wednesday's session. Unless the rookie fifth-round pick is able to practice fully by Friday, he'll likely approach Sunday's game against the Colts with an injury designation.

Out against Raiders
Philips (shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Raiders.
Analysis: Philips logged three limited practices leading up to the Titans' Week 3 matchup. However, he'll miss his first game of the season, which should ensure that Treylon Burks and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine see the field plenty. Philips' absence will also likely push Amani Hooker into primary punt-return duties.

Doubtful for Week 3
Philips (shoulder) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game versus the Raiders, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Philips gutted out a shoulder injury Week 2 at Buffalo, hauling in his only target for five yards but also muffing a punt that the Bills recovered. Despite logging limited practices Wednesday through Friday this week, he seemingly won't get a chance at redemption Sunday. Philips' status will be confirmed about 90 minutes before a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, and assuming he's sidelined, the Titans' primary wide receivers will be Robert Woods, Treylon Burks and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine.

Remains limited Thursday
Philips (shoulder) was a limited practice participant Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Although the Titans didn't hold a full Wednesday practice, Philips' estimated participation level was listed as limited for that day as well. Two limited practices would normally have a player on track to play going into Friday practices, so as long as the rookie's shoulder avoids any setbacks he should be on track to suit up against Las Vegas on Sunday, even if limited to some extent.

Listed as limited Wednesday
Philips was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice due to a shoulder injury, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Philips, who was limited at practice this past Friday and Saturday, approached Monday's game against the Bills listed as questionable, but he ended up suiting up. With no reported setbacks in the Titans' 41-7 loss, Philips' limitations Wednesday could well be maintenance-related. Following a six-catch, 66-yard effort in the Titans' season-opening loss to the Giants, Philips logged just one catch for five yards Week 2 while working behind Treylon Burks, Robert Woods and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine.

Key error in blowout loss
Philips recorded one reception on one target for five yards in Monday's 41-7 loss to the Bills.
Analysis: Philips was among the Titans' most targeted pass catchers in Week 1, but he was an afterthought in Monday's blowout loss. He also muffed a punt midway through the third quarter, which led directly to a Bills touchdown. Philips was removed from his role as punt returner thereafter, but it remains to be seen if there will be playing time repercussions for his mistake moving forward.

Suits up Monday
Philips (shoulder) is listed as active for Monday night's game against the Bills.
Analysis: Philips approached the contest listed as questionable after logging limited practice listings Friday and Saturday, but he'll give it a go Monday. In the process, the 2022 fifth-rounder will look to build off a six-catch, 66-yard effort (on nine targets) in his NFL debut Week 1. It remains to be seen if he'll maintain such volume Week 2, with Robert Woods, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and Treylon Burks also in the Titans' wide receiver mix, but if Philips can keep up the pace in the coming weeks, he'll…read more

Questionable for Monday
Philips (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Bills, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Philips logged two straight days of limited participation in practice thanks to a shoulder injury. The rookie was the most productive of any of the Titans' wide receivers in Week 1, tallying six receptions for 66 yards on just 31 offensive snaps. If Philips is unable to play, expect Robert Woods, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and Treylon Burks to shoulder the majority of the offensive load.

Practices in non-contact jersey
Philips (shoulder) was limited in practice Friday.
Analysis: Philips ramped up his activity after sitting out Thursday's practice entirely, but he sported a non-contact jersey, per Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site. The rookie generated some fantasy buzz after leading the Titans with 66 receiving yards in his NFL debut, but fantasy managers relying on him Week 2 will have a dearth of options if Philips is unable to suit up, as the Titans won't face the Bills until Monday.

Misses practice with shoulder injury
Philips didn't participate in Thursday's practice due to a shoulder injury, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The rookie fifth-round pick out of UCLA is nursing the injury four days after he logged a team-high nine targets while recording six receptions for 66 yards in the Titans' season-opening loss to the Giants. The Titans will wait and see if Philips can upgrade his activity in practice over the next two days before deciding on his status for Monday's game in Buffalo.

Catches six passes in opener
Philips logged 31 of a possible 65 snaps on offense in Sunday's season-opening 21-20 loss to the Giants en route to catching six of his team-high nine targets for 66 yards.
Analysis: Though Philips was outsnapped by both Robert Woods (46 snaps) and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine (44 snaps), it was he and fellow rookie Treylon Burks (24 snaps, five targets) who were QB Ryan Tannehill's most-targeted options in Week 1. Though Woods and Westbrook-Ikhine could pick up the pace in Week 2, Philips' showing in Tennessee's opener puts the 2022 fifth-rounder on the PPR radar ahead of next Monday's contest against the Bills.

Starts final preseason game
Philips did not record a reception or target in Saturday's 26-23 preseason win over Arizona.
Analysis: Philips started the game in a three-receiver set alongside Treylon Burks and Robert Woods. Philips didn't record any statistics but also served as the punt returner early in the game. Philips may give way to Nick Westbrook-Ikhine early in the season for offensive snaps, but he has impressed during training camp and will have the chance to showcase his talent on special teams.

Serves as punt returner
Philips recorded one reception on four targets for 11 yards in Saturday's preseason game against Tampa Bay.
Analysis: Philips struggled to get on the same page with Malik Willis, though he did manage the seventh-longest offensive play for the Titans on the day. He also served as Tennessee's punt returner and ripped off returns of 35, 27 and 15 yards. Philips has impressed as a slot receiver in camp, so he immediately could make an impact in multiple facets of the game.

Contending for slot role
Philips has impressed in the slot during training camp and could open the season as Tennessee's starting slot receiver, John Glennon of SI.com reports.
Analysis: Gelnnon points out that Robert Woods (knee) and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine can both play the slot as well, but they could both be ticketed for roles on the outside if rookie first-round pick Treylon Burks (undisclosed) isn't ready to start right away. Philips, who was a fifth-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft out of UCLA, is thus involved in an indirect competition for playing time with his rookie teammate.

Only impact on special teams
Philips failed to bring in his only target and returned two punts for 16 yards in the Titans' 23-10 preseason loss to the Ravens on Thursday night.
Analysis: The rookie fifth-round pick drew the second target of the night on the opening drive from Malik Willis, but that was the extent of his involvement on offense. Philips did muster a 13-yard return when the Ravens were forced to punt on their first drive, yet he wasn't able to carry over any of the momentum he'd generated as a receiver in recent camp practices. The UCLA product will need to have much more of a presence on offense beginning with the Titans' next exhibition matchup against the…read more

Getting snaps with starters
Philips has been getting work on the first-team offense, with WRs coach Rob Moore noting Thursday that the rookie has "made some plays" and "immersed himself in the playbook,", Buck Reising of 104.5 The Zone reports.
Analysis: Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reported Tuesday that Philips was beginning to get some slot work with the first unit. He's off to a great start at training camp, by all accounts, but it's hard to see the fantasy upside for a rookie fifth-round pick slot specialist in a run-first offense with a mid-range starting quarterback. A lot would need to go wrong for the Titans for Philips to see more than 3-4 targets per game.

Impressing with quickness
Philips impressed the Titans with his route running and short-area quickness during offseason practices, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Philips stands at only 5-foot-11 and 189 pounds, so he'll almost certainly be limited to reps in the slot throughout his career. However, the rookie showed some burst at the combine and has been able to carry that athleticism onto the practice field this offseason. Both Ryan Tannehill and receivers coach Rob Moore remarked about Philips' ability to run precise routes and his short-area quickness, while also acknowledging that he has a lot of work to do to prove he can be productive in the NFL.…read more
