DRAFTED: Round 3, No. 70 overall
The physical defensive back provides useful versatility — and enviable accountability. In the wake of last Sunday’s 27-22 loss to the Commanders, Phillips was beside himself, per beat writer Patricia Traina, due to a pair of subpar snaps. The first came on a Terry McLaurin touchdown that initially appeared to be on Giants CB Deonte Banks. Not according to Phillips.
“We’re playing a technique. I’m supposed to take the underneath. We’re supposed to switch on McLaurin. Yeah. I’m supposed to do that. That’s, that’s me,” Phillips said. “I gotta be better for this team, for [Banks], for this organization.”
The second was a missed tackle that allowed Washington to convert a third-and-18 (and eventually score another TD).
“If I get that tackle on that third down, that doesn’t happen,” Phillips said. “I’ll take it on the chin; I don’t care. I gotta be better. I gotta be better on my details. I gotta grow up.”
Don’t be too hard on yourself, Dru! You’re playing — and acting — like a seasoned vet.
