Phillips totaled six tackles (one solo) during Minnesota's 27-25 win over Green Bay on Sunday. Phillips finished Sunday's game as the Vikings' second-leading tackler behind Blake Cashman (11). Phillips is now up to 50 tackles (15 solo), including 2.0 sacks, four pass defenses, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery across 16 regular-season games. His defensive snap count has noticeable decreased over the last three games, but the Vikings will need the best out of Phillips for the regular-season finale against the Lions next Sunday in a game that will determine the NFC's No. 1 seed heading into the postseason.
Phillips (knee) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Seahawks. The 28-year-old opened Minnesota's week of practice with consecutive limited sessions due to a knee injury, but he upgraded to a full workload Friday, suggesting he's moved past the issue in time to play Sunday. With Phillips back at full health, he's expected to serve as one of the Vikings' top interior defensive linemen in Week 16.
Phillips (knee) was limited in Wednesday's practice. Phillips previously dealt with a back issue earlier in the month, so this is a new injury for the veteran defensive tackle. Phillips has started all 14 games this season, logging 41 tackles (14 solo), including 2.0 sacks, five QB hits, four batted passes, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery.
Phillips (back) is available for Sunday's game versus the Falcons. Phillips was a late addition to the Vikings' injury report Friday following a limited session. It looks like Minnesota was simply exercising caution, as he is set to suit up Sunday at home against Atlanta.
Phillips (back) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons. Phillips was a Friday addition to the injury report, getting in a limited session. Late-week additions to the injury report tend to trend toward not playing, but the Vikings are giving Phillips a chance to suit up. Backup NT Taki Taimani (ankle) is already on injured reserve, so Minnesota could be thin up front if Phillips can't go Sunday.
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.
