Phillips has put plenty of fear into opposing offenses since joining the Dolphins, recording 22 sacks, 24 tackles for loss and three fumble recoveries over that span.  Phillips was enjoying a breakout campaign last year before an injury prematurely ended his season after just eight games. Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel recently provided an update on both Phillips and fellow outside linebacker Bradley Chubb, who is also working his...
