But i know in my heart that he will be successful in the NFL because one thing I know is that I didn't raise a quitter. My son is a wonderful person and when I see so called fans saying they are glad he is hurt or they wish he would off himself, I have to wonder how these people where raised. God bless you all. I know he has disappointed some of you and there are others that hate him but so be it. Do any of you have sons that wanted to play professional sports and didn't make it? Well my son did. God bless you all and GO Chiefs!

Hey Ms. Gaines. Thank you for visiting us and telling us these awesome little nuggets.
I followed Phillip at Rice. I knew the Chiefs were going to draft him. He played great press man coverage and had outstanding recovery speed. The Chiefs were deep at CB, though, and he got hurt.
By the time he was healthy — I don’t know. I knew he was a great competitor but the Chiefs played more off man and more zone. Threw Phillip in the slot, and he struggled.
He was by all accounts an outstanding teammate. He deserves another shot in the NFL, maybe even in KC. He’ll definitely have suitors. The league is starved for corners.
God bless!
