EAGAN, Minn. – One of Harrison Phillips’ Playmakers got her wish.
Earlier this spring during a speaking engagement with Vikings Head Coach Kevin O’Connell, audience members had a chance to ask questions. Elizabeth, a member of Phillips’ foundation supporting young people with developmental differences, took the opportunity to tell O’Connell he should “keep Harrison Phillips in Minnesota forever.”
The “forever” part doesn’t seem likely, but the Vikings did secure Phillips through the 2026 season.
Minnesota agreed to a deal with the defensive tackle Tuesday, the team announced.
“It was a lot. It was emotional. I’m super thankful,” Phillips told Twin Cities media members Wednesday. “To have enough perspective to see what I’ve accomplished in my career so far, to go out and earn something like this, it means a lot to me.”
Referencing a photo he posted on Instagram almost exactly one year ago, Phillips said he “can’t imagine what my younger self would think” seeing him sign a second deal with Minnesota.
