Phillips signed a contract with the Raiders on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis
Phillips played exclusively for the Raiders on special teams, and was diagnosed with a season-ending knee injury following Sunday's loss to the Texans. The specifics of the injury remain unclear, and the 24-year-old will look for another shot elsewhere when healthy.

Coach Jon Gruden said Phillips will miss the rest of the season due to a knee injury, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Phillips exclusively played special teams in Sunday's loss to the Texans and apparently suffered the knee injury at some point. The specifics of the injury remain unclear, but the 24-year-old should be placed on injured reserve in the near future.

The Raiders promoted Phillips to the active roster Wednesday, Myles Simmons of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Phillips, an undrafted rookie out of Oklahoma State, was brought up to provide depth at linebacker with Marquel Lee (ankle) on injured reserve. He was productive in college with 98 tackles and two sacks through 13 games, but he'll do most of his work on special teams for now.

The Cowboys signed Phillips on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Phillips was an honorable mention All-Big 12 section as a senior with Oklahoma State, leading the team with 98 total tackles. He'll need to be able to demonstrate that knack for finding the ball in the NFL if he wishes to hang around the Cowboys long enough to make the 53-man roster.
