2025 Fantasy Outlook
Phillips is entering the final year of his rookie contract, so his full focus will be logging an impressive contract season after having been limited to just four appearances in 2024 due to an ACL tear. The 2021 first-rounder has only suited up for 12 combined games over the last two years, making it pivotal he proves an ability to stay healthy in 2025. After a quick offseason rehab, Phillips will have an opportunity to produce in what should be a much-improved Dolphins pass rush, with Bradley Chubb returning and Chop Robinson entering Year 2. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a four-year, $14.02 million contract with the Dolphins in June of 2021. Dolphins exercised $13.25 million team option for 2025 in April of 2024. Traded to the Eagles in October of 2025.
Heading to Philadelphia
The Eagles acquired Phillips from the Dolphins on Monday in exchange for a 2026 third-round draft pick, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
After having added cornerbacks Michael Carter and Jaire Alexander in trades last week, the Eagles continue to bolster their defense by acquiring Phillips, who should help boost the team's pass rush. In nine games with Miami, the 2021 first-round pick -- who is in the final year of his contract -- recorded 25 tackles and three sacks.

2021
Phillips, a 2021 first-round pick, was putting together a career year before tearing his ACL in Week 12 of the 2023 campaign. The Dolphins have picked up the fifth-year option of Phillips' rookie deal, keeping him under contract for two more seasons, but it would be reasonable to anticipate him getting off to a slow start in 2024. That could be true for much of Miami's defensive front, with Bradley Chubb also working his way back from an ACL tear, but once both are back to full health, they should be able to bring some serious pressure up front against opposing offenses.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could boost production in Philly
Phillips will reunite with defensive coordinator Vic Fangio after being traded from the Dolphins to the Eagles on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Fangio was the DC in Miami in 2023, Phillips' best season in the NFL when he racked up 6.5 sacks in only eight games before suffering a season-ending ACL tear. The 26-year-old edge rusher hasn't been as effective since recovering from the injury, but joining another Fangio defense might provide his production with a jolt before he heads into free agency. Through nine games with the Dolphins in 2025, Phillips has just 3.0 sacks among his 25 tackles.
