S Kenny Phillips has had by all accounts a great camp. Phillips has been particularly impressive in his coverage of the deep ball, and had a couple of acrobatic interceptions this camp - coordinator Steve Spagnuolo joked "They might want to move him to receiver". Reporters have been raving about Phillips' closing speed. I think it's safe to say Phillips has his mind set on winning a starting safety spot prior to the start of the regular season.

Defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo confirmed today that your challenge of S Kenny Phillips' INT from yesterday was successful. "He caught it, yeah he caught it. It was a legitimate catch and then roll and then get up," Spags said. "When you put that thing in and watch it on tape, it's amazing how far he came from when the ball was in the air. That was a legitimate play. That was a great catch. They might want to move him to receiver."
