showcases versatility on the field as a linebacker and defensive back, adding depth to any defensive lineup. Standing tall, his imposing presence is felt as he drives through tackles with exceptional force, often delivering bone-crunching hits that disrupt opponent plays. His adeptness in coverage is notable, demonstrating impressive verticality to contest passes effectively. However, his initial movements are hindered slightly by flat feet at the start of each play, causing a slight delay in reaction time. Additionally, while his coverage skills are commendable, there’s room for improvement in the fluidity of his back pedal, as he tends to lag behind in transitioning from movement to coverage. Despite these areas for growth, Phillips remains a formidable force on the field, capable of making impactful plays and bolstering defensive strategies. Phillips is committed to play for the Butler Grizzlies next year as the 263 ranked senior prospect in Kansas
