Jordan Phillips was a force in the center of the Bills defensive line. He was second in the NFL among defensive tackles with 9.5 sacks, a total which also led the Bills overall, pass rushers on the edge included. Of his 31 total tackles, 15 were behind the line of scrimmage, second on the team behind only Shaq Lawson. In addition, he registered a forced fumble.

Phillips gave Buffalo a pass-rush presence from the interior of the line and he wasn’t ever noticeable in a bad way against the run. Of all of Buffalo’s “snubs” to the Pro Bowl and All-Pro lists, Phillips is certainly at the top of the list. Now the Bills must decide on to keep him around since he’s a free agent.
