Ben Phillips brings proven veteran snaps and big-play background to UT Martin’s WR room
Ben Phillips is a known quantity at UT Martin: in the 2018 season, he played in 11 games, made three starts, and logged 8 catches for 47 yards while also contributing on punt returns and defense, showing versatility and toughness[3]. His deeper track record includes 92 career catches for 2,100 yards and 23 touchdowns at Garden City Community College, with a strong 20.0 yards per catch, which hints at downfield explosiveness rather than just possession work[3]. If a team wants a multi-role, experienced receiver with a wide receiver/secondary background and return-game utility, Phillips fits the “plug-in and compete” mold nicely[3].
