Safety Kenny Phillips IR – Aaron Rouse joins Giants
Kenny Phillips is on IR and might require surgery on his knee.
A few weeks ago Aaron Rouse was on the packers 53 man roster. He played well enough for them and got waived. something weird going on there.
Now he’s a Giant because starting safety Kenny Phillips is on IR. This is a big loss. Phillips was our best safety. Rouse has some experience (25 games, 9 starts) but is still an unknown for the most part. Many people think Rouse has good potential and are wondering out loud why the Packers let him go.
What we do know: 6’4″, 227 pounds, better in run support than in coverage. Good tackler. Makes errors and that’s why I say he is an unknown. Will he continue to make costly mistakes or can we coach him up?
Rouse is a guy we can root for:
