Philips was signed to the Eagles' practice squad Wednesday, per the NFL's official transaction log. Philips joined the Eagles' practice squad ahead of the season and will now return to the team's practice unit again. The 25-year-old will provide Philadelphia with an additional depth option at wide receiver moving forward.
Philips was signed to the Eagles practice squad Tuesday. Philips was let go by the Titans on Thursday after reaching an injury settlement with the team following a hamstring issue. The wide receiver now appears to be back in good health, joining Philadelphia's practice squad after reeling in 15 passes for 181 yards while appearing in nine games with Tennessee in 2023.
The Titans removed Philips (hamstring) from injured reserve Thursday with an injury settlement, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Philips has dealt with multiple injuries since being selected by the Titans in the fifth round of the 2022 NFL Draft. Once healthy, he'll look to catch on with a team looking to add depth to its wide receivers corps.
Philips (hamstring) reverted to Tennessee's injured reserve Wednesday. Philips will stick around with the Titans despite having been waived with an injury designation Tuesday. The 2022 fifth-round pick will now shift his focus to getting healthy.
The Titans have waived Philips (hamstring) with an injury designation, Nick Gray of the Nashville Tennessean reports. Injuries continue to be an issue for the 2022 fifth-rounder, who was limited to 13 contests over his first two pro campaigns. This time around, the UCLA product is dealing with a hamstring issue that caused him to miss Tennessee's final two preseason games. Following Tuesday's transactions, the team's WR corps is comprised of Calvin Ridley, DeAndre Hopkins, Tyler Boyd, Treylon Burks, Nick Westbrook-Ikhin and Jha'Quan Jackson.
Philips (hamstring) is unlikely to play in the Titans' preseason finale at the Saints, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports. Phillips has been sitting out of practices with a lingering hamstring injury, and now it looks like it could keep him out until at least the regular season. It's no sure thing that he'll make Tennessee's final 53-man roster, though, and players like Sam Schnee may get more opportunities to make an impression if Philips is out.
Philips missed practice Thursday with a hamstring injury, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports. Philips has a history of hamstring issues after spending a good chunk of his 2022 rookie season on injured reserve with the same injury. He also missed time at the end of last season with a hamstring strain. Philips has also dealt with knee and shoulder injuries as a pro, missing a total of 23 regular-season games across two campaigns. Philips' spotty medical history and the fact he's missing time once again makes him an uncertain proposition for a roster spot.
Philips is expected to enter training camp fighting for a roster spot, John Glennon of the Nashville Post reports. Philips, a 2022 fifth-round pick, secured 15 of 22 targets for 181 yards across nine appearances last season, and he never managed to play more than 50 percent of offensive snaps. With Calvin Ridley and Tyler Boyd joining DeAndre Hopkins atop the depth chart, and 2022 first-round pick Treylon Burks still vying for opportunities, Phillips finds himself competing for limited reserve roles, and rookie sixth-round pick Jha'Quan Jackson also projects as a slot option and return man.
Philips was able to pace the Titans in receiving yards for the second straight game on an afternoon where Will Levis threw for just 199 yards. The sure-handed wideout seems to have good chemistry with the rookie signal-caller, however, posting a 10-153 line over the three games Levis has seen action in. Philips will aim to carry over the momentum into a Week 11 road matchup against a porous Jaguars secondary.
