Jordan Phillips' time with the New York Giants didn't last long, but he'll likely see them twice in 2024.
The Giants are trading Phillips and a 2026 seventh-round pick to the rival Dallas Cowboys in exchange for a 2026 sixth-round selection, NFL Network Insiders Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero reported Wednesday night.
Josina Anderson first reported the news.
Phillips is a nine-year NFL veteran who's played for the Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills and Arizona Cardinals.
He started nine games for Buffalo last season with 15 tackles and 2.5 sacks. The 31-year-old signed with Big Blue in the spring, but is now bound for Big D, where, should he make the roster, will be set to play the Giants this season.
Though he's primarily been used on the inside, Phillips has played some at defensive end. He could be used for depth on the Cowboys interior behind Mazi Smith and Osa Odighizuwa or put into place to help with the loss of defensive end Sam Williams, who suffered a season-ending knee injury. One of the players signed to soften Williams' loss, Shaka Toney, was waived/injured this week.
