News

  • Moves to IR

    Phillips (knee) was placed on injured reserve Thursday.

    Analysis: Phillips was already ruled out for the season due to a partial right ACL tear suffered in Monday's loss to the Titans, so this move was fully expected. The transaction created a roster spot that the Dolphins used to sign fellow linebacker Tyus Bowser. Phillips will now focus on his recovery with an eye toward a return in 2025, the final year of his rookie contract.

  • Recovering from partial ACL tear

    Phillips (knee) suffered a season-ending partial right ACL tear during Monday's loss to the Titans, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Phillips was limited to eight regular-season appearances last season, with most of his missed time come as the result of a torn Achilles sustained Week 12. The standout pass rusher was able to work his way back and gain clearance to play as early as August, but he now faces the task of recovering from yet another serious injury. The Dolphins picked up Phillips' fifth-year option over the offseason, so he will play out the final year of his rookie contract during the 2025 campaign.

  • Done for season

    Phillips announced Wednesday via his personal Instagram account that he will miss the remainder of the 2024 season due to a knee injury, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Phillips didn't mention the exact diagnosis of the knee injury he suffered in Monday's loss to the Titans, but the 2021 first-round pick did state that he'll need reconstructive surgery. The Miami product returned to the field this season after sustaining a season-ending Achilles injury eight games into the Dolphins' 2023 campaign. He's appeared in 12 games over the past two seasons, recording 49 total tackles, including 7.5 sacks, and four pass breakups. Expect Emmanuel Ogbah to see more work…read more

  • Needs further evaluation

    Phillips (knee) is still being evaluated for his injury suffered in Monday's loss to the Titans, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Phillips exited the game in the second half and was unable to return. Jackson speculates it's unlikely he'll play in Week 5 against the Patriots due to the short week, but confirmation likely won't come until the team releases its first injury report. Considering the team has a Week 6 bye, it wouldn't be surprising if Phillips ultimately got the week off for extra recovery time.

  • Done for night

    Phillips (knee) has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's contest against the Titans, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Phillips appears to have tweaked his right knee versus Tennessee, and he'll now be forced to sit out the rest of Monday Night Football. In his absence, Emmanuel Ogbah will likely see an increase in workload at weak-side linebacker.

  • Full participant Thursday

    Phillips (Achilles) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: The linebacker was a limited participant Wednesday after playing 56 snaps across Miami's first two games following a brisk recovery from last November's Achilles tear. The fourth-year pro has recorded two tackles, including 1.0 sacks, in the Dolphins' first two contests.

  • Limited to start week

    Phillips (Achilles) was limited in Wednesday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Miami continues to bring Phillips on slowly as he recovers from an Achilles tear he sustained last November. Barring any setbacks, the 2021 first-round pick should suit up for Sunday's game against Seattle, though he could remain on a snap count. Phillips has tallied two tackles (one solo), including 1.0 sacks, over the first two games of the regular season.

  • Off injury report

    Phillips (Achilles) has no injury designation ahead of Thursday night's matchup with the Bills, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Phillips is still recovering from the Achilles injury he sustained in 2023, but it appears he'll be suiting up Thursday night after playing limited snaps in Week 1. The 2021 first-round pick logged 6.5 sacks in just eight regular-season games last season, and he's expected to line up opposite Quinton Bell as part of Miami's top pass-rush unit against the Bills.

  • Still tending to injury

    Phillips (Achilles) was listed as a limited participant in Monday's practice estimate, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Phillips was on a playing time limit for Sunday's 20-17 win over the Jaguars, but he still played 33 snaps and recorded 1.0 sacks. The Dolphins will likely continue to play it safe with their first-round selection in the 2021 NFL Draft, especially on a short week ahead of Thursday night's matchup against the Bills.

  • Practices in full Thursday

    Phillips (Achilles) was a full participant in practice Thursday, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

    Analysis: Phillips was a DNP for Wednesday's session, but he was able to participate in both individual and team drills Thursday. Per David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel, Phillips is expected to operate on a snap count for the Dolphins' regular-season opener against the Jaguars on Sunday, but it could be a soft cap given the 2021 first-round pick was able to practice without restrictions Thursday.

  • Will be limited Week 1

    Phillips (Achilles) will have a snap count Sunday against the Jaguars, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Phillips was limited in practice Wednesday, as he continues to work himself back to full strength from his Achilles injury in November. However, it does sound like the 2021 first-round selection will be active -- although it's not clear how limited he'll be -- for Week 1 against Jacksonville. The fact that the Dolphins also play four days later, Thursday, Sept. 12 against the Bills, likely will factor into how frequently Phillps sees the field Sunday.

  • Ready to roll

    Phillips (Achilles) is hopeful to play without any restrictions in Week 1, Omar Kelly of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Phillips has not officially been cleared for Week 1 yet, but Wednesday's injury report figures to give an update. The star edge rusher has been inching closer to a return since being activated off the PUP list in mid-August. If he indeed has no restrictions in Sunday's season opening matchup with the Jaguars, it would be beneficial for the Fins' defense.

  • Sits out Saturday

    Phillips (Achilles) did not play in Saturday's preseason win over the Commanders.

    Analysis: Phillips' return is inching closer to a return after being activated off the PUP list last Monday, but Miami is likely taking the cautious approach with its 2021 first-round selection. His next chance to play will be in Friday's preseason finale against the Buccaneers, but it wouldn't be surprising if he didn't suit up again until Week 1 against the Jaguars.

  • Still questionable for Saturday

    It's unclear whether Phillips (Achilles) will play in Saturday's preseason game against Washington, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Phillips is close to a return after tearing his Achilles last November, but whether that return is this Saturday or in the near future remains uncertain. The 6-foot-5 linebacker looks to be preparing for a Week 1 appearance, but he may not play in the preseason.

  • Activated off PUP

    The Dolphins activated Phillips (Achilles) off the active/PUP list Monday, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.

    Analysis: Phillips is now one step closer to returning to the field after tearing his Achilles last November. The 25-year-old will now look to build off the strong season he had last year before getting injured, when he recorded 6.5 sacks across eight games.

  • Heads to PUP list

    The Dolphins placed Phillips (Achilles) on the active/PUP list Thursday.

    Analysis: Phillips will start training camp on the PUP list as he works his way back from a right Achilles tear. Though he underwent surgery late November, Phillips has stated that he expects to be ready for Week 1 of the regular season, and he'll be eligible to come off the PUP list at any point in camp or the preseason once ready to practice. Miami also placed fellow star pass-rusher Bradley Chubb (knee), who is recovering from an ACL tear, on the PUP list ahead of camp.

  • Gets final year

    Phillips (Achilles) had his fifth-year option on his rookie contract exercised by the Dolphins on Monday.

    Analysis: Phillips expects to be ready by Week 1, and it was previously reported by Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com that Miami picking up his option was the plan, according to GM Chris Grier. The 2021 first-round selection was on pace to smash all his career-best totals before tearing his right Achilles in Week 12 and now will look to build off of that going into 2024 with two years now left on his contract.

  • Getting fifth-year option picked up

    General manager Chris Grier said Tuesday that the Dolphins will exericse the fifth-year option on Phillips' (Achilles) rookie contract before May's deadline, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: A torn right Achilles' tendon limited Phillips to just eight games last season, but he's reportedly on track to be ready for Week 1 of the 2024 campaign. He's been one of the Dolphins' more impactful pass rushers over the past three seasons, and the team will be more in need of him than ever with Christian Wilkins having moved on to Las Vegas.

  • Expects to be ready for season

    Phillips (Achilles) said Saturday that he will "definitely be back healthy for the season," Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Phillips tore his Achilles during Miami's win against the Jets on Nov. 24 and underwent surgery less than a week later. He recently indicated on social media that he is walking without a boot, and his comments Saturday lend further optimism about his ability to be ready to suit up in time for the start of the 2024 regular season. Phillips racked up 43 tackles (28 solo), including 6.5 sacks, and an interception over eight games before suffering the Achilles injury last year.

    Analysis: Phillips suffered a torn Achilles' tendon in the Dolphins' Nov. 24 win over the Jets and is now over two months removed from surgery.

  • Has season-ending surgery

    Phillips (Achilles) had surgery Wednesday and will not play for the remainder of the season, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: The 24-year-old pass rusher sustained his first major professional injury in Friday's win over the Jets. Up to this point in the season, Phillips had blossomed into one of the best young pass rushers in the league, recording 6.5 sacks in just 351 snaps this year compared to his seven sacks in 796 snaps last year. With Phillips sidelined, the Dolphins will rely on veteran Emmanuel Ogbah to fill his role on the defense as they strive to secure a top seed in the AFC.

  • Formally placed on IR

    The Dolphins placed Phillips (Achilles) on injured reserve Tuesday.

    Analysis: The move was merely a formality after Phillips suffered a season-ending torn Achilles in last Friday's win over the Jets. In a corresponding move, the Dolphins signed veteran edge rusher Jason Pierre-Paul off New Orleans' practice squad. Phillips' season is over and he finished with 6.5 sacks in eight contests.

  • Torn Achilles confirmed

    An MRI on Saturday confirmed Phillips suffered a torn Achilles in Friday's victory over the Jets, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Phillips had recorded one sack, three tackles behind the line of scrimmage and one pass deflected before exiting Friday's game with the injury. With his season now presumably over, a trip to injured reserve is the next step as he sets his sights on recovering for the 2024 season. Emmanuel Ogbah is the likely candidate to replace him on the edge going forward opposite Bradley Chubb.

  • Exits with Achilles injury Friday

    Phillips (Achilles) has been ruled out for the remainder of Friday's game against the Jets.

    Analysis: Phillips got injured in the second half after recording one sack and three tackles for loss among his four tackles (three solo). He added a pass defensed. Phillips' injury didn't look good and could lead to an extended absence, though confirmation on that front won't come until additional testing is performed to confirm the severity of the injury.

  • Snags first career interception

    Phillips logged six total tackles (five solo), including two sacks and two tackles for loss, while also grabbing an interception in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Raiders.

    Analysis: Phillips was the only Dolphin to record a sack during Sunday's contest, and he's now just half a sack behind the team's leader Bradley Chubb. The third-year edge rusher has dealt with some injuries this season, but he's still on pace to have the best year of his career. Through seven games, the Miami product has logged 39 total tackles, including 5.5 sacks and four tackles for loss. Expect Phillips to continue causing problems for opposing offenses for the remainder of the season.

  • Logs sack in third straight game

    Phillips recorded five tackles (two solo), including a sack, in Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Phillips has turned it on since returning from the oblique injury that sidelined him for two games earlier this season, registering at least five tackles and a sack in three straight contests. When Miami returns from its Week 10 bye, Phillips should get plenty more chances to rush the passer versus Las Vegas in Week 11.

  • Records sack in back-to-back games

    Phillips had eight tackles (seven solo), including a sack, in Sunday's 31-17 win over the Patriots.

    Analysis: He sacked Mac Jones on the Patriots' last drive of the game that helped seal the win. Phillips played 47 snaps on defense Sunday and has played in at least 45 defensive snaps in back-to-back games, a good sign that he is over the oblique injury that forced him to miss two contests this season. Phillips and the Dolphins' defense will have their hands full in Week 9 against Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs in Germany.

    Phillips (oblique) is active ahead of Sunday's game against the Panthers, David Furones of The Sun Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: The 2021 first-round pick was a limited participant in Dolphins' practice all week after missing the team's last three games, but it seems as if he's had enough time to nurse his oblique injury and he'll return to the field this Sunday. Phillips has logged 115 total tackles, 17 tackles for loss and 16 sacks throughout his first three years in the NFL.

  • Questionable to face Carolina

    Phillips (oblique) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers.

    Analysis: Phillips got in a week of limited practices. He hasn't played since Week 3 but figures to have a decent shot of suiting up for Sunday's affair. Through two games, Phillips has 12 tackles and 0.5 sacks. Miami's defense could feast on the winless Panthers.

  • Questionable for Sunday vs. Giants

    Philips (oblique) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Giants.

    Analysis: Phillips was limited at practice the entire week after sitting out in Week 4 at Buffalo, so he seems like a coin-flip bid to suit up for Week 5. If he's forced to sit out for the third game this season, Andrew Van Ginkel should continue to see increased work on the edge.

    Phillips (toe) is active for Sunday's game against the Packers, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Phillips, who practiced in a limited fashion in each of Miami's three practices earlier this week due to a toe issue, is now slated to avoid missing his first contest of the 2022-23 campaign Sunday versus Green Bay.

  • Solid rookie campaign

    Phillips racked up 42 tackles (23 solo), 8.5 sacks, one pass breakup and one fumble recovery across 17 games in 2021.

    Analysis: Phillips put together an effective rookie effort, especially as a pass rusher, though he didn't prove consistent enough to jump onto the IDP fantasy radar as a weekly starter in most formats. The 2021 first-rounder will look to take a step forward in terms of fantasy relevance as a sophomore, when he could have a clearer path to an every-down role.

  • Notches three sacks

    Phillips registered three sacks, four tackles (three solo) and a pass defensed in the Dolphins' 33-10 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

    Analysis: Phillips' pass defensed was the first of his career, while his four tackles bring him to 33 on the season. The three sacks was, of course, the highlight of the day for the rookie, who was drafted by the Dolphins in the first round of the 2021 Draft. Even more impressive, he accomplished the feat on only 49 percent of the defensive snaps played. Now with 6.5 sacks on the season, Phillips will look to top himself Sunday against the Giants.
