Miami Dolphins linebacker Jaelan Phillips suffered a torn Achilles back in November that ended his 2023 season prematurely.
His injury occurred in a 34-13 win over the New York Jets after he went down with the noncontact injury late in the fourth quarter. He had to be carted off to the locker room. A couple of days later, he would undergo successful surgery on his Achilles. Typically, such injuries and repairs require about a year of rehab.
Six weeks later and we are now seeing the progress of that surgery and injury.
Phillips took to social media and shared a picture of his leg:
Phillips played in eight games with six starts this year, totaling 43 tackles (28 solo), 6.5 sacks, one interception, and two passes defensed.

The Dolphins had a red-hot start to the season but faltered when they lost three of their final five regular-season games, including a Week 18 home matchup against the Buffalo Bills with the AFC East title on the line.
