What would an NFL defense look like comprised of only Texas Longhorns?

Adrian Phillips, Safety, New England Patriots

It’s hard to fathom leaving off a NFL All-Pro from the list of this Longhorns defense. The former Longhorn went undrafted before signing with the Los Angeles Chargers. Phillips played alongside Vacarro and was the lesser talked about safety prospect. He played in 50 games for Texas with 191 tackles, five interceptions and eight passes defended. He was named a NFL All-Pro in 2018 despite only starting seven of 16 games played that year. He took over for the injured Derwin James. In 2020 he will play his first season in New England.

Finally the punter is next.
