Flashes talent in rookie campaign
Phillips finished the 2024 regular season with 71 tackles (46 solo), including 1.0 sacks, along with an interception and two forced fumbles over 14 games (six starts).
ANALYSIS
After being selected by New York in the third round of April's NFL Draft, Phillips opened eyes as a rookie, finishing fifth on the team in tackles. His biggest performance came in Week 2, when he logged a career-high 12 stops, including his first pro sack. Phillips missed a game early in the campaign due to a calf issue and two later in the season because of a shoulder injury, but he was overall a consistent contributor from the slot, finishing with at least four tackles in each of his final six games. Phillips showed enough as a rookie to remain a key part of the Giants' defense next season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Drawing significant interest
Phillips' list of "30" visits includes the Bears, Texans and 49ers, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
The Kentucky cornerback wrapped up visits with those teams last week, and he's also checked in with the Steelers, Cardinals, Giants, Eagles, Lions and Bills. Given the picks held by those teams, Phillips might sneak into the end of the first round in the 2024 NFL Draft, but if not he seems likely to hear his name called early on Day 2.
