Since going undrafted out of the University of Texas following the 2014 NFL Draft, Los Angeles Chargers strong safety Adrian Phillips has had a slow, yet steady rise in the league. Bleacher Report recently called him one of the best values to potentially become available in the upcoming 2019 free agent class. For the Saints, making the effort to get him to New Orleans could be one of the best deals the team has made in free agency since, well, Demario Davis.
Let’s get the bad news out of the way quickly. The Chargers, in all likelihood, will make every possible effort to keep Adrian Phillips in Los Angeles.
