Phillips had one total tackle and blocked a pass attempt at the line that turned into an interception for Kamu Grugier-Hill in Sunday's win over Houston. Phillips is disruptive on the defensive line but that doesn't often result in sacks or tackle stats as the team's starting nose tackle.
Phillips agreed to terms Tuesday on a two-year contract extension worth up to $19 million with the Vikings, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. Phillips, who logged five tackles (one solo) and 1.0 sacks during Minnesota's win over the Giants in Week 1, will remain an anchor of the team's defensive front for the foreseeable future. The veteran is coming off a career-best 2023 campaign in which he tallied 92 tackles (44 solo) and 3.0 sacks across 17 regular-season games.
Phillips recorded five tackles (one solo), including a sack, in Minnesota's 28-6 win over the Giants on Sunday. Phillips was one of the four players on the Vikings to record a sack in what was a dominant outing for the defense as whole. The 2018 third-round pick will look to produce once again when the team takes on the 49ers next week.
