Giants HC Brian Daboll announced Giants OL Tyre Phillips tore his quad and will need surgery, per Art Stapleton.
It’s an unfortunate and significant injury for Phillips and will impact his job prospects this coming offseason.
Phillips, 26, was a one-year starter at Mississippi State. The Ravens used the No. 106 pick in the third round of the 2020 NFL Draft on him.
Phillips signed a four-year, $4,057,646 contract that includes a $832,295 signing bonus but was cut loose by Baltimore in 2022 and claimed by the Giants.
The Giants waived Phillips coming out of the preseason and he signed with the Eagles practice squad. New York later re-signed him to their active roster.
In 2023, Phillips appeared in 10 games and made nine starts for the Giants at right tackle. Pro Football Focus had him rated as the No. 69 tackle out of 83 qualifying players.
