Adrian Phillips enters the 2020 offseason as an unrestricted free agent after signing a one-year deal prior to the 2019 season. Phillips was coming off a career year in 2018 where he was selected as a first-team All-Pro for the first time in his career. He was also a pro bowl selection that season. He only started seven games that year with one interception, nine passes defended and 94 total tackles.

He would be a great pickup for any team looking for a safety who can provide depth, spot start and play on special teams. Phillips was an undrafted free agent out of Texas in the 2014 NFL Draft class. A broken arm limited his play in 2019, starting five games. He returned late in the season off the injured reserve list.

There are plenty of teams in need of a safety and Phillips should garner plenty of attention as the NFL Free Agency periods gets closer. Not likely to be one of the first players to be contacted but as the first and second waves of signings complete, look for Phillips to get a call.
