"It took Kyle Phillips seven months to go from a draft dodger -- he wasn't picked, as it turned out -- to a significant role on the Jets' defensive line. He's second to the recently traded Leonard Williams in snaps played (375 to 338) and leads the unit in total tackles (33), emerging as a bright light in a dark season for the Jets (2-7). Against long odds, he's fulfilling his childhood ambition, with a big assist from someone who has made a life of conquering barriers."
