Dru Phillips: Giants were ‘the only team that cared’ about his vision

New York Giants cornerback Dru Phillips created havoc in the slot last year. He was one of the league’s most disruptive slot defenders despite being a rookie.

Phillips’ presence was one reason to be excited for the Giants’ secondary in 2025. Phillips was good in 2024, but how good could he be in 2025 with a year of experience in the defense, a full offseason, and having seen the speed of the NFL?

Well, Phillips gave us another question to ask: How good can he be now that he can see?

We learned on Thursday that Phillips underwent LASIK surgery to correct his vision over the offseason.
