Eagles FS Kenny Phillips says his absence from practice was precautionary and "nothing serious." Phillips is taking it easy on his left knee, which underwent micro-fracture surgery in 2009. Phillips' litany of knee injuries since entering the league are concerning, and this could be a situation to monitor going forward.

Eagles FS Kenny Phillips missed practice with an undisclosed injury to his surgically repaired knee. Coach Chip Kelly wouldn't go into detail, only saying Phillips was "out with (a) knee injury." It's possible he suffered a setback, but until the Eagles elaborate we're inclined to believe it's due to general soreness. Phillips has battled knee injuries since entering the league.

Eagles agreed to terms with FS Kenny Phillips, formerly of the Giants, on a one-year deal. Phillips stays in the division on a one-year deal as he tries to rehab some value after battling knee issues for the past couple of seasons. A fine coverage safety, the Eagles will likely pair Phillips with fellow new acquisition SS Patrick Chung on their back end. There were whispers the Giants were thinking about franchising Phillips last week.

Free agent FS Kenny Phillips will test the open market. The Giants and Phillips have talked about a new contract for the past couple of weeks, but the money "wasn't nearly enough" and his chances of re-signing before March 12 "appear gone." Phillips' preference is to re-sign with the Giants. Once he hits the market, Phillips' chances of being back with New York take a major hit.

The Giants are "continuing to see" if they can work out a new contract with free agent FS Kenny Phillips. Per reporter Jason La Canfora, Phillips is unlikely to be franchise tagged ahead of Monday's deadline. With Antrel Rolle and Stevie Brown to fall back on at safety, the Giants will likely only bring Phillips back at their price.

The Charlotte Observer mentions impending free agent FS Kenny Phillips as an option for the Panthers. Phillips almost certainly won't be back with the Giants, who appear set at the safety spots with Antrel Rolle and Stevie Brown. New Panthers GM Dave Gettleman also knows Phillips from his days with the Giants. Phillips has battled knee issues over recent seasons, but he would be quite an upgrade on burnable Haruki Nakamura.

Giants FS Kenny Phillips believes his knee has been so problematic this season because his rehab was done improperly. Keep in mind Phillips is in a contract year. His comments suggest he won't be re-signing with the G-Men in 2013. "When we started our rehab we didn't go about it the right way, and now here we are, we're dealing with it right now," Phillips said. "I don't want to get into (specifics). It just didn't work out the way we wanted it to." Phillips has played in 5-of-11 games this year.

Giants FS Kenny Phillips' right knee injury is an aggravation of his previous MCL issue. Coach Tom Coughlin "doesn't know what to expect." Phillips was making his first appearance since Week 3 on Sunday. It's doubtful Phillips is ready for Week 13. Tyler Sash and Stevie Brown should rotate snaps opposite Antrel Rolle.

Giants FS Kenny Phillips was forced from New York's Week 12 game against the Packers with a right knee injury, and will not return. It's the same knee that held Phillips out between Weeks 4-10. Phillips was able to walk off under his own power, but he'll likely be questionable at best for Week 13. Tyler Sash has come on at free safety.
