Jaelan Phillips might not even be starting for Miami had it not been for Gregory Rousseau electing to opt out of the 2020 season, but yet here we are.

Through the first three games of the season, Phillips has been all over the field. He has 2.5 tackles for loss, two pass deflections and an interception. But we also shouldn’t forget about his counterpart Quincy Roche.

Both of those guys together make for a lethal pass-rush that very well could be the best that the Tigers will face this season, certainly one of the best without question.
