Joins Giants' practice squad
The Giants signed Phillips to their practice squad Tuesday, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports. Phillips finished the 2023 season with the Giants after appearing in 10 games for them, and now he's back in their facilities as Week 12 of 2024 approaches. Jermaine Eluemunor and Evan Neal are currently the Giants' starting left and right tackles, respectively, and it would likely take an injury for Phillips to be elevated to the active roster.
Ready to visit teams
Phillips (quadriceps) is back to football training at full speed and he's ready for visits with teams to get checked out in the near future, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports. Phillips suffered a torn quad tendon in Week 17 last season with the Giants but is now cleared and ready to find his new suitor. The 6-foot-5 offensive tackle has started 27 games in his career, spread out over four seasons with both Big Blue and the Ravens.
Expects to be cleared in August
Phillips (quadriceps) is expected to be fully cleared in August, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports. Phillips suffered a torn quad in the Giants' Week 17 loss to the Rams last season and has been rehabbing in the Dallas area this summer. Currently a free agent, Phillips has 27 career starts under his belt over the last four seasons with the G-Men and Ravens.
Progressing well
Phillips is progressing well in his recovery from quadriceps surgery, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports. Phillips underwent the surgery in early January. His next step in recovery will be to resume running, which he's expected to be able to do in four to five months. Phillips is unlikely to be ready for the start of the 2024 season, though there has been nothing definite regarding his timeline.
