    Analysis: Phillips missed the team's first two preseason games as he was recovering from offseason shoulder surgery but is now healthy again and played nine snaps during the preseason finale.

    Phillips (shoulder) is not suited up for Saturday's exhibition matchup with the Colts, Katherine Fitzgerald of The Buffalo News reports.

    Analysis: Phillips underwent offseason shoulder injury and the Bills are seemingly easing him back into the swing of things. His inactive status is not surprising. When healthy, he projects to provide interior depth on the Bills' defensive line.

  • Re-signs with Buffalo

    Phillips (shoulder) agreed to a one-year, $3 million deal with the Bills on Wednesday, Sal Capaccio of WGR Sports Radio 550 Buffalo reports.

    Analysis: Phillips underwent surgery to repair his torn rotator cuff following the conclusion of the 2022 season, but the Bills seem confident the veteran defensive tackle will be healthy by training camp. After being cut by the Cardinals last offseason, Phillips began his second stint with the Bills in 2022 and tallied 20 tackles and 1.5 sacks in 12 games. He'll likely fill a rotational role along the defensive line during the upcoming campaign.

  • Undergoes rotator cuff surgery

    Phillips (shoulder) had surgery to repair his torn rotator cuff after the 2022 season, Michael Giardi of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Phillips, a pending free agent, appeared in 13 games during the 2022 campaign and totaled 21 tackles and 1.5 sacks. It's unclear when he suffered the injury, but he saw a reduced role down the stretch and played just 17 snaps during the Bills' divisional-round loss to Cincinnati.

  • Will play Sunday

    Phillips (shoulder) is active Sunday against the Bengals, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

    Analysis: Phillips will return to play after missing the team's wild-card win over the Dolphins. The veteran defensive tackle has also missed multiple games this season due to the injury, but after he was able to log limited practices throughout the week he'll take the field in the divisional round. His return should be a boost to Buffalo's defensive front.

  • Listed as questionable

    Phillips (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's divisional-round matchup against the Bengals, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    Analysis: Phillips was inactive for the Bills' wild-card win over Miami due to a lingering shoulder injury that has sidelined him since Week 16. The veteran defensive tackle returned to practice this week, but he was a limited participant Wednesday through Friday and is a question mark for Sunday. DaQuan Jones (calf) is also questionable, so Tim Settle and Kendal Vickers could be candidates for increased roles if Jones and Phillips are both ruled out.

  • Won't play Sunday

    Phillips (shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's wild-card matchup against Miami.

    Analysis: Phillips didn't practice Wednesday through Friday due to a lingering shoulder injury that has sidelined him since Week 16, so it's not surprising to see him ultimately inactive. In Phillips' absence, Tim Settle, Kendal Vickers and Eli Ankou will be the backup defensive tackles behind Ed Oliver and DaQuan Jones.

  • Officially questionable

    Phillips (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's wild-card matchup against the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Phillips didn't practice Wednesday through Friday due to a lingering shoulder injury that has sidelined him since Week 16. Nonetheless, the veteran defensive lineman will still have a chance to suit up Sunday against the team that drafted him in 2015. Across 12 regular-season appearances with Buffalo, Phillips totaled 20 tackles, two pass defenses and 1.5 sacks while playing a rotational role along the Bills' defensive line.

  • Still nursing injury

    Phillips (shoulder) was a non-participant in practice Thursday, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

    Analysis: Phillips has been dealing with a shoulder injury since the Week 12 win over New England, keeping him sidelined until Week 16 versus Chicago. The 30-year-old has now logged back-to-back DNPs during the first week of playoff prep, leaving him with just one more opportunity to increase his practice activity before Sunday's wild-card matchup against Miami. Expect Phillips to retain a prominent role alongside defensive tackle Ed Oliver when healthy.

  • Will play Saturday

    Phillips (shoulder) is active for Saturday's contest in Chicago, Sal Capaccio of WGR Sports Radio 550 Buffalo reports.

    Analysis: Phillips sat out each of Buffalo's previous two games while dealing with a shoulder injury, but he'll return Week 16 after logging three limited practices. He'll likely return to a rotational role along the defensive line, as he's logged between 40 and 57 percent of Buffalo's defensive snaps in all but one of the games in which he's played this season.

    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Could return for Week 16

    Phillips (shoulder) is considered questionable for Saturday's game versus Chicago.

    Analysis: Phillips has missed the Bills' last two games with tending to a shoulder injury, which kept him limited during each practice of Week 16 prep. With top defensive tackle Ed Oliver (calf) also considered questionable for Saturday's contest, DaQuan Jones and Tim Settle could both be in line for increased roles against Chicago's run-first offense.

  • Will remain out

    Phillips (shoulder) will not play Saturday against the Dolphins, Alec White of the Bills' official site reports.

    Analysis: Phillips suffered the injury Week 13 against the Patriots and missed Week 14 against the Jets. He'll now miss his second consecutive game with the injury. His absence takes on greater importance as Ed Oliver continues to nurse a pectoral injury that has him currently questionable for Saturday's game with the Dolphins, which could leave Buffalo without two of its top interior linemen.

  • Ruled out for Week 14

    Phillips (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Jets, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: After suffering a shoulder injury in Week 13 versus the Patriots, Phillips will be forced to miss at least one contest while nursing the injury. In his absence in Week 14, Tim Settle could see a slight uptick in usage on the defensive line. Phillips will now shift his focus to being ready for the Bills' Saturday night matchup with the Dolphins in Week 15.

  • Exits late Thursday

    Phillips was ruled out before the end of Thursday's game against the Patriots with a shoulder injury, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Phillips went down after attempting to sack Patriots quarterback Mac Jones late in the fourth quarter, and he was able to exit under his own power, according to Matt Parrino of The Syracuse Post-Standard. While the nature of this injury is unclear, it's possible he was simply ruled out given how little time was left in the contest. Either way, it will be worth monitoring Phillips' status heading into Week 14's contest versus the Jets on Sunday, Dec. 11.

  • Playing Sunday

    Phillips (hamstring) is active Sunday against the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Phillips was able to log limited practices all week after aggravating a hamstring injury in Week 5, which forced him to miss multiple games already this season. His ability to suit up will be a boost to the Bills' depth at defensive tackle against Kansas City.

  • Deemed questionable for Sunday

    Phillips (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Phillips missed back-to-back games due to a hamstring injury but returned to action in Week 5. He briefly left the contest against Pittsburgh in the first half after presumably aggravating the hamstring issue, but he was back in the mix during the second half. Phillips logged three straight limited practices during Week 6 prep and will likely be a game-time decision ahead of Sunday's 4:25 PM ET kickoff.

  • Limited Wednesday

    Phillips (hamstring) was limited during Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Phillips missed Weeks 3 and 4 due to a hamstring injury but returned for Week 5. He briefly exited the matchup against Pittsburgh in the first half after presumably aggravating the injury but returned in the second half. The team will likely continue to monitor the issue but, barring a setback, Phillips appears on track to play in Week 6.

  • Returns against Pittsburgh

    Phillips (hamstring) returned during the second half of Sunday's game against the Steelers, Matt Parrino of The Syracuse Post-Standard reports.

    Analysis: Phillips exited with a hamstring injury during the first half of this Week 5 contest, though he appears to be doing fine after working his way back onto the field. The 30-year-old missed Buffalo's last two games with a lingering hamstring injury, so it will still be worth monitoring his status heading into next week's contest versus the Chiefs.

  • Forced out Sunday

    Phillips (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Steelers.

    Analysis: Phillips was listed as questionable heading into Week 5 after missing the Bills' last two games with a hamstring injury, which he appears to have aggravated during the first half Sunday. The veteran defensive tackle recorded six tackles and 1.5 sacks over the first two weeks of the season, and his potential absence could leave Tim Settle to step into a bigger role behind Ed Oliver and DaQuan Jones.

  • To return against Pittsburgh

    Phillips (hamstring) is active Week 5 against the Steelers.

    Analysis: Phillips has been sidelined in back-to-back weeks with a hamstring injury, but a return to practice on a limited basis this week will ultimately pave the way for his return to the defensive line rotation. Fellow defensive tackle Ed Oliver (ankle) is also returning this week, bolstering the depth of an already strong position group.

  • Questionable versus Pittsburgh

    Phillips (hamstring) is questionable to play in the Bills' Week 5 contest versus the Steelers, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

    Analysis: Phillips was a limited participant at each of the team's practices this week, opening the door for him to return to the field for the first time since Week 2, as he's been nursing a hamstring injury. With Ed Oliver (hamstring) also a little worse for wear, the Bills are currently thin on the interior defensive line.

  • No go for Week 4

    Phillips (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 4 against the Ravens, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports.

    Analysis: Phillips will miss a second consecutive game this week after suffering a hamstring injury in Week 2 against the Titans. In his absence, Brandin Bryant and Tim Settle will see an increased workload on the defensive line.

    Published: Fri, Sep 30 at 8:47am by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Not expected to play Sunday

    Bills head coach Sean McDermott said Wednesday that he doesn't think Phillips (hamstring) will play Sunday against the Ravens, calling the defensive tackle week-to-week, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Phillips suffered the injury during the team's Week 2 win over the Titans and remained sidelined for Week 3. It appears like the issue will cause him to miss at least one more contest and potentially even a few more after that. Ed Oliver (ankle) is also dealing with an injury, so Brandin Bryant and Tim Settle have garnered increased roles next to DaQuan Jones along the interior of the Bills' defensive line to start the campaign.

  • Out for Week 3

    Phillips (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Phillips suffered the injury during Monday's win over the Titans and didn't practice at all this week, so his unavailability doesn't come as a surprise. Ed Oliver (ankle) could also miss Sunday's game after being limited at practice throughout the week, so Buffalo will need to dig into its defensive line depth for its matchup with Miami.

    Published: Fri, Sep 23 at 8:37am by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Our for remainder of Monday's game

    Phillips has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's game against the Titans due to a hamstring injury.

    Analysis: Phillips, along with Micah Hyde (neck) and Matt Milano (stinger), won't return to the Bills' blowout win over the Titans. The severity of the defenders' injuries remains unclear, but it's always a possibility Buffalo is simply being cautious as it cruises to victory. Regardless, the Bills will have one less day to prepare for Week 3, so if any of the aforementioned players misses a practice, they'll have an uphill battle to suit up Sunday against the Dolphins.

  • Creates pressure in Week 1

    Phillips recorded four tackles (two solo) and 1.5 sacks during Thursday's 31-10 win over the Rams.

    Analysis: Phillips played 35 of the team's 67 defensive snaps and made his presence felt by harassing Matthew Stafford on multiple occasions in the first half. The defensive tackle's solo sack came in the middle of the second quarter, which put the Rams in a difficult third-and-long situation, and his shared sack almost put Los Angeles out of field-goal range at the end of the first half. Phillips recorded 9.5 sacks during his lone campaign with Buffalo in 2019 and is off to a strong start in his return…read more

  • Signs with Bills

    Phillips signed a one-year contract with the Bills on Thursday.

    Analysis: Phillips dealt with various injuries across his two years with the Cardinals and played in just nine games in each of those seasons. The 29-year-old recorded 22 tackles (14 solo), three sacks and two pass defenses in 2021 but will now return to Buffalo, where he racked up a career-high 9.5 sacks in 2019. Phillips was sidelined with a knee injury to close out the 2021 campaign but should be available for offseason activities.

  • Cut by Cardinals

    The Cardinals released Phillips (knee) on Wednesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Phillips inked a three-year, $30 million contract with Arizona ahead of the 2020 campaign, but he was limited to nine games in each of the past two seasons and totaled only five sacks. The 29-year-old will likely need to settle for a more modest contract in free agency this time around.

  • Done for Week 15

    Phillips (knee) is out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Lions, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    The Cardinals designated Phillips (undisclosed) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official website reports.

    Phillips (illness) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, NFL reporter Aaron Wilson reports.

    Analysis: Phillips recently tested positive for the virus and will be away from the team until he clears the league's health and safety protocols. It seems unlikely that he'll be able to return for either of the Cardinals' final two preseason games, but he'll attempt to suit up for the team's Week 1 matchup against the Titans on Sept. 12.

  • Shifts to IR

    The Cardinals placed Phillips (hamstring) on injured reserve Saturday.

    Analysis: Phillips will be shut down for the final three games of the regular season as he looks to get healthy from a lingering hamstring issue. Zach Allen, Leki Fotu and Angelo Blackson will all be candidates to handle increased reps at defensive end in Phillips' stead.

  • Ruled out for Week 15

    Coach Kliff Kingsbury said Monday that Phillips (hamstring) won't play in the Week 15 matchup against the Eagles, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Analysis: Phillips returned to the lineup in this past Sunday's win over the Giants after missing the previous four games with a hamstring injury. However, the 28-year-old defensive end aggravated the injury early in the contest and will be sidelined once again. Until Phillips returns, Zach Allen, Leki Fotu and Angelo Blackson will handle the reps at defensive end.

  • Aggravates hamstring injury

    Phillips is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Giants with a hamstring injury, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Analysis: The 28-year-old spent the past month on injury reserve with a hamstring injury before being activated Saturday, and he appeared to aggravate the injury early in Sunday's contest. Angelo Blackson and Leki Fotu are poised to have an increase in snaps if Phillips is unable to return.

  • Joins 53-man roster

    Phillips (hamstring) was elevated to the active roster Saturday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Analysis: Phillips has missed the last four games due to a hamstring injury he suffered in Week 7. The 28-year-old should return to his starting defensive end duties and will look to add to his 10 tackles (10 solo) and two sacks as the Cardinals take on the Giants this week.

  • Preparing to return from IR

    Phillips (hamstring) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday.

    Analysis: The Cardinals have 21 days to evaluate Phillips' condition and activate him from IR. After missing four games, the 28-year-old defensive end could return to the lineup for this Sunday's matchup against the Giants. Once he's healthy, Phillips should retake the starting defensive end role as he looks to add to the two sacks he posted through the first eight games.

  • Ruled out three games

    Phillips (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Thursday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Phillips was already set to miss his second straight game Thursday against the Seahawks, so this news puts him out at least another two games. As long as Phillips is sidelined, Angelo Blackson is expected to draw the start at defensive end opposite Josh Mauro, with Michael Dogbe adding depth.

  • Missing more action

    Phillips (hamstring) won't play in Thursday's divisional matchup against the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Phillips will miss his second consecutive game due to the hamstring issue he suffered in the first game against Seattle this season in Week 7. Phillips' absence will hurt the defensive line, as Angelo Blackson will look to draw the start at defensive end opposite Josh Mauro. Phillips will look to use the extra rest to get healthy and return for Week 12 against the Seahawks.

  • Ruled out against former team

    Phillips (hamstring) won't play against the Bills on Sunday, Kyle Odegard of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Analysis: Phillips won't get the chance to suit up against the team for which he played in 2018 and 2019. He originally suffered his hamstring injury in Week 7 and played through it last week following a bye, but the defensive lineman evidently aggravated the injury, and he'll need to sit out at least one game to let it heal. Phillips will hope to get back on the field in Week 11 against the Seahawks, though doing so will be challenging on a short week.

  • Active for Week 9

    Phillips (hamstring) is listed as active for Sunday's matchup against the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Phillips entered the weekend carrying a questionable designation after he suffered a hamstring injury during Arizona's Week 7 Sunday Night Football overtime win against Seattle. Limited sessions in practice Thursday and Friday provided optimism that he may ultimately be able to go, and the 28-year-old has evidently shown enough to team trainers in pregame workouts to get the nod.

  • Questionable for Week 9

    Phillips (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against Miami, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Analysis: Phillips managed to put in limited practice sessions Thursday and Friday after sitting out entirely Wednesday with the injury he suffered in Week 7 prior to Arizona's bye last week. After grabbing a sack apiece in his first two appearances of the season, Phillips hasn't gotten one since.

  • Hurts hammy on SNF

    Phillips (hamstring) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against Seattle.

    Analysis: Arizona will be shorthanded at defensive end for the rest of the night without both Phillips and Zach Allen (ankle). Angelo Blackson should take most of the snaps vacated by Phillips' absence. With Arizona on bye in Week 8, Phillips will have an extra week to recover before facing the Dolphins in Week 9.

  • Available against Seahawks

    Phillips (foot) is active for Sunday's game against Seattle.

    Analysis: Phillips missed three straight practices this week, but he'll nonetheless manage to suit up for Sunday's divisional contest. He'll work to provide Arizona's pass rush with a spark against the notoriously elusive Russell Wilson.

  • Deemed questionable for Sunday

    Phillips (foot) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Seahawks, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.

    Analysis: Phillips didn't practice all week, so it appears he's on the wrong side of questionable for Week 7. The Cardinals' pass rush is already hurting without Chandler Jones (biceps) in the picture, so losing Phillips, who has two sacks through six games, would be salt in the wound. Angelo Blackson and Leki Fotu would enjoy increased usage with Phillips out of the picture.

  • Missing another practice

    Phillips (foot) did not practice Thursday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Phillips has now missed back-to-back practices due to a foot injury apparently sustained during Monday's win over the Cowboys. It's possible that the Cardinals are simply allowing Phillips a few rest days on a short week, but if he were forced to miss any time, Angelo Blackson would be the favorite to start at defensive end.

  • Good to go Sunday

    Phillips (illness) is active for Sunday's game versus the Jets.

    Analysis: Phillips has enjoyed a strong start to the season with two sacks and a forced fumble through four games. He's shaken off the illness that kept him out of practice this week, and the 2015 second-round pick should handle a full workload against the Jets.

  • Dealing with illness

    Phillips (illness) was a non-participant during Thursday's practice, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Analysis: Phillips seems to be dealing with a non-COVID-19 related illness, however, the ailment is serious enough to force him to miss practice time. He'll hope to shake off the illness, but if he can't play in week 5, Angelo Blackson would be in line to draw the start at defensive end.

  • Ready to rock

    Phillips (ankle) is officially active for Sunday's game against Detroit.

    Analysis: Phillips was able to log limited practice sessions during the week after failing to suit up Wednesday, but he was able to get healthy enough to play. Now healthy, look for the Oklahoma product to assume his usual starting role at defensive end.

  • Pegged as questionable

    Phillips (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Lions.

    Analysis: After being a non-participant during Wednesday's practice, Phillips has logged two straight limited sessions. We won't know his final status until 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff, and if he's ruled out, expect Angelo Blackson to bump into a starting DE role.

  • Heads to the desert

    Phillips is signing a three-year, $30 million contract with the Cardinals, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The 2015 second-round pick enjoyed a breakout season for the Bills in 2019, posting career highs of 31 tackles, 9.5 sacks and 16 QB hits while starting nine of 16 games. The Bills can afford to lose Phillips given that they have Ed Oliver and Star Lotulelei on their roster, while the Cardinals get some much-needed pass rush help for the interior of their defensive line. Phillips was originally drafted by the Dolphins and produced just 5.5 sacks in 48 games for Miami.

  • Wraps up breakthrough season

    Phillips, who registered a career-high 9.5 sacks in 2019, will be an unrestricted free agent in March.

    Analysis: Beginning the season as a depth piece on a talented defensive line, no one saw Phillips leading the team in sacks for the season, but he did just that with the out-of-nowhere 9.5, more than all of his four previous NFL seasons combined. Phillips won't come as cheap as the one-year, $4.5 million he signed with the Bills last March, so the team will need to make a decision whether it wants to pony up on a longer-term deal. It helps that the Bills have tons of cap money if they want to make a play…read more

  • Adds to sack total

    Phillips had three total tackles -- two of which were sacks -- in Sunday's win over Pittsburgh.

    Analysis: Phillips has surprisingly powered his way to a team-leading 9.5 sacks on the season, even more surprising in that it's his sixth year in the NFL and he had just 5.5 for his entire career entering 2019. He brings a ton of energy to his game, and he somehow made enough of an impression that he's starting over prized rookie Ed Oliver, who's been no slouch in his own right. Phillips won't get too many tackles as an interior lineman and he typically doesn't log over 60 percent of the defensive…read more

  • Limited Thursday

    Phillips was listed as limited for Thursday's practice due to a knee injury, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

    Analysis: Phillips wasn't hindered to start Wednesday's session, so we'll have to assume it's something minor ahead of Sunday's game against Pittsburgh unless the Bills tell us otherwise. The veteran defensive tackle remains Buffalo's surprise sack leader with 7.5 through 13 games.

  • Takes down Fitzpatrick

    Phillips notched two solo tackles and a sack in Sunday's 37-20 win over the Dolphins.

    Analysis: The Bills afforded rookie Ed Oliver a chance to take over as a starter over the first few games, but Phillips has manned the role since the Week 6 bye. The 27-year-old defensive tackle has produced well, as he's generated seven sacks through 10 contests, exceeding his total from the previous 60 games combined.

  • Gets start in Week 9

    Phillips logged three tackles -- including a sack -- during Sunday's win over Washington.

    Analysis: The defensive tackle got the start over prized rookie Ed Oliver, a noteworthy fact in itself. Phillips logged 33 defensive snaps while Oliver saw only 18. Phillips is up to 6.0 sacks, which leads the team, and he's starting to set himself up for a nice payday considering he's working off a one-year journeyman deal. He's been a key factor in what's been one of the league's best defenses.
