DARIUS PHILLIPS NEWS

Moves to injured reserve The Broncos placed Phillips (hamstring) on injured reserve Tuesday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

Impact Phillips is now essentially slated to miss the rest of the season after being placed on injured reserve Tuesday due to a lingering hamstring issue. The fifth-year cornerback primarily served as a special-teams contributor during his first campaign with Denver.

Full go Wednesday Phillips (illness) was a full participant in Denver's practice Wednesday, Ellie Kinney of the team's official site reports.

Impact Phillips missed his fifth game of the season Week 10 after coming down with an illness. Now, the 27-year-old appears ready to suit up again after logging a full session during the first practice of Week 11. Expect Phillips to reprise a core special-teams role against the Raiders on Sunday.

Won't play Sunday Phillips (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Titans.

Impact Phillips landed on the injury report Thursday as a non-participant due to an illness and was unable to practice Friday as well, so his lack of availability isn't surprising. The fifth-year defensive back has played exclusively on special teams this season, so his absence shouldn't impact Denver's defense.

Full participant Friday Phillips (hamstring) was a full participant during Friday's practice.

Impact Phillips hasn't played since Week 2 due to a lingering hamstring issue, but he returned to practice in a limited fashion Thursday and progressed to a full participant Friday.

Limited in practice Thursday Phillips (hamstring) logged a limited practice Thursday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

Impact Phillips hasn't recorded a full practice since before Week 3 as he's dealing with a nagging hamstring injury. The cornerback hasn't logged a snap on defense since joining Denver, so if Phillips can't suit up Monday, his absence shouldn't have an impact on the Broncos' defense.

Staying out Thursday Phillips (hamstring) was ruled inactive ahead of Thursday's game against the Colts.

Impact Phillips will miss his third straight game after picking up a hamstring injury following Denver's Week 2 win over Houston. The reserve cornerback has not played a defensive snap since signing with the Broncos on Sept. 1, so his absence should not make much of an impact in Thursday's game against Indianapolis.

Could return Thursday Phillips (hamstring) is questionable for Thursday against the Colts, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com.

Impact Phillips has been out since Week 2 with the injury, but he's been able to log limited practices throughout the week. The fifth-year corner may bolster the Broncos depth at corner if he is able to play. If not, Essang Bassey will likely continue to provide deep depth at the position.

Out Sunday Phillips (hamstring) will be sidelined for the Broncos' Week 4 matchup with the Raiders.

Impact No surprise here, as Phillips was a non-participant at practice all week. His abence will mark his second straight due to a hamstring issue. The next chance he has to suit up will come in Week 5 versus the Colts.

Ruled out for Week 3 Phillips (hamstring) is out for Sunday's matchup against the 49ers.

Impact Phillips was unable to practice in any capacity throughout the week. He played exclusively on special teams in Denver's first two games, so his absence won't have a significant impact on the outcome of the matchup.
