According to Field Yates, the Steelers, Patriots and Saints all placed waiver claims for DTย Jordan Phillips on Wednesday, but ultimately lost out to the Bills, who have the higher waiver priority.
Phillips, 26, is a former second-round pick of the Dolphins back in 2015. He’s currently in the final year of his four-year, $4,362,908 contract and set to make a base salary of $1,029,942 for the 2018 season.
The Dolphins elected to waive Phillips on Tuesday after he had seen a reduced role in recent weeks and clearly wasn’t happy about it.
In 2018, Phillips appeared in four games for the Dolphins and recorded five tackles, one sack and a pass defense.
