“Massive Boost” Cincinnati Bearcat Defensive Veteran Among National Leaders In Quarterback Pressures

Eric Phillips is one of the national leaders in quarterback pressures through four games, recording 14 pressures according to PFF, along with a 66.2 pass rush grade.

Two weeks ago, this veteran disrupted Miami’s (OH) chances of maintaining the victory bell and, on Saturday, he pressured Donovan Smith with three pressures.

Cincinnati required a reliable outside rusher, and Phillips is stepping up consistently, achieving three or more pressures in every game so far. He leads a defense that has accumulated nine sacks this season, ranking 30th nationally.
