Phillips recorded 10 tackles (four solo) in the Browns' 38-15 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Phillips has now recorded double-digit tackles for the second week in a row, while playing 100 percent of the team's defensive snaps. The third-year pro has filled in admirably, at least on the stat sheet, for Anthony Walker who is out for the season due to a torn quadriceps. Phillips will look to keep stacking up the tackles Sunday against the Ravens.

Phillips had 10 tackles and one sack in Week 5's 30-28 loss to the Chargers.

EDGE Analysis

For the second consecutive week, Phillips played 100 percent of the defensive snaps while filling in for the injured Anthony Walker (quadriceps), who will miss the rest of the season. It should also be noted that the Browns were gashed on the ground by the Chargers, who rolled up 238 rushing yards (7.0 YPC). Following the game, Cleveland acquired linebacker Deion Jones (shoulder) from Atlanta, and he is expected to be part of the linebacker rotation, which could mean a drop in playing time for Phillips.

Phillips tallied seven tackles (six solo) during the Browns' 23-20 loss to Atlanta on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Phillips started Sunday's game and tied for the team lead in tackles. Since Anthony Walker (quadriceps) has been ruled out for the remainder of the season, Phillips should continue to serve as the Browns' starting middle linebacker going forward.

Phillips will start in place of the injured Anthony Walker (quadriceps) in Sunday's game against Atlanta, Anthony Poisal of the Browns' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Phillips filled in after Walker left last week's win over the Steelers and recorded seven tackles, including a sack, along with a pass defensed. Walker has since been ruled out for the rest of the season, so Phillips steps in at middle linebacker and will relay play calls on defense. The three-year veteran has played 16 games since being selected in the third round of the 2020 Draft.

Phillips had seven tackles, a sack and a pass defensed in Thursday's 29-17 win over the Steelers in Week 3.

EDGE Analysis

Phillips, normally part of the linebacker rotation, was given extra playing time after Anthony Walker was carted off the field with a knee injury. He has a modest 10 tackles through three games but should see more time in the middle of the defense if Walker misses time.

The Browns activated Phillips (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Phillips played 24 defensive snaps in his season debut versus Baltimore in Week 14, after coming off IR, but he then missed Week 15 because of a positive test for COVID-19. Now that he's gained full clearance, the second-year pro can be considered on track for Saturday's game in Green Bay.

Phillips was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday after testing positive for the virus, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

EDGE Analysis

Phillips was activated from injured reserve last week and had three tackles in his season debut, but he's now in the health and safety protocols.

The Browns have activated Phillips (biceps) ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Ravens, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

EDGE Analysis

After initially expecting to miss the entire 2021 campaign, Phillips was designated to return by Cleveland earlier in the week and now has a chance to make his season debut Week 14. With Anthony Walker (undisclosed) ruled out, the second-year middle linebacker could be in line for a decent workload right away.

Phillips (biceps) was designated to return from injured reserve Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Phillips was initially expected to miss the entire 2021 campaign after he underwent surgery to repair a torn biceps in late August. However, he'll now be eligible to return to practice and will be able to be activated from injured reserve within 21 days. While it's not yet clear when the 22-year-old could return to game action, it appears as though he'll be back on the field prior to the end of the season.

Phillips (biceps) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Phillips recently underwent surgery to repair a torn biceps, so it's hardly a surprise to see him land on injured reserve. He'll be eligible to be activated after missing three games but is expected to be sidelined for the full 2021 campaign.
