Texas Christian linebacker Jason Phillips, the third-ranked inside linebacker in the draft according to NFL Network analyst Mike Mayock, tore the meniscus in his left knee at the NFL scouting combine, according to Gil Brandt of NFL.com. Phillips disclosed the injury at his Pro Day on the TCU campus Friday morning. Per Brandt, Phillips’ recovery is expected to last about three months. It’s a timetable that should have him back on the field by training camp. Phillips excelled at the NFL scouting combine with a 4.69 clocking in the 40-yard dash, a 10-foot broad jump and a 4.32 time in the 20-yard shuttle.
