Jordan Phillips

While Jordan Phillips only played about 40% of the defensive snaps and finished the game with only one total tackle, his presence on the interior of the defensive line went beyond just that one tackle.

Phillips has been dealing with a hamstring injury for a few weeks now but against the Kansas City Chiefs, looked more like the player from the beginning of the season. He was getting consistent pressure up the middle and was forcing Patrick Mahomes to shift the pocket.

The Buffalo Bills defensive line as a whole has looked much better this season and the Buffalo Bills did a great job improving this part of their defense in the offseason. One of the reasons for their success has been Phillips who has been a big part of the rotation at defensive tackle with DaQuan Jones, Ed Oliver, and Tim Settle.
