The knee injury suffered by Miami Dolphins pass rusher Jaelan Phillips in the team’s Week 4 loss will require season-ending reconstructive surgery, Adam Stites of Dolphins Wire reports.

It’s the second devastating injury in less than a year for Phillips, who tore his Achilles on Nov. 24, 2023 and began training camp this season on injured reserve.

Phillips, 25, appeared to first injure his knee in the second quarter of the Dolphins’ loss to the Tennessee Titans. However, he later returned to the game before eventually exiting for good in the second half.

On Tuesday, Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters that Phillips would miss the team’s upcoming game against the New England Patriots, but wasn’t sure yet if it would keep the outside linebacker out of action for multiple games.

Phillips recorded one sack in four games this season with two quarterback hits and two pass deflections.
