Heads to injured reserve
Phillips (biceps) was placed on injured reserve by the Colts on Monday.
ANALYSIS
The linebacker exited Saturday's preseason game against the Packers with the injury and is expected to be out for the season, per Paul Breti of USA Today. Phillips signed a reserve/future contract with the Colts in January after getting cut by the Texans in August of 2024. The 2020 third-round pick of the Browns last saw regular-season action in 2022, when he made 46 tackles (29 solo) in seven games with the Browns.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Phillips returns for the final year of his rookie contract and needs to play better than he did in 2022 if he wants a fifth year and beyond. He was pressed into full-time duty due to injuries, and his play suffered as a result. Phillips eventually sustained a season-ending pectoral injury and was limited to seven games. He'll start the season as a fourth linebacker.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Season likely over
The biceps injury Phillips sustained in practice Thursday is a torn biceps tendon, which will likely keep the linebacker out for the entire season, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Phillips was in line to play a prominent role on Cleveland's defense on the heels of a strong rookie season from the 2020 third-round pick. The Browns are thin at linebacker after Anthony Walker, and they'll likely try to address that deficiency by bringing in somebody from outside the organization.
