When the Miami Dolphins selected Oklahoma defensive tackle Jordan Phillips in the second round of the NFL Draft, new anecdotes were set in franchise history and some anecdotes were revised and updated. The following information comes to us courtesy of the Miami Dolphins Public Relations Department.

  • When the Dolphins selected Jordan Phillips with a pick the team acquired by trading with the Philadelphia Eagles, Phillips was the sixth player selected by the Dolphins at pick number 52 in the franchise’s history. The last player to be selected with the 52nd pick by the Dolphins was wide receiver Chris Chambers.
  • Phillips becomes the 51st defensive tackle the Dolphins have selected in the NFL draft. The last player listed as a defensive tackle drafted by the team was Kheeston Randall, who was selected in the seventh round (215th overall) of the 2012 NFL draft.
  • Phillips is the first player from Oklahoma to be selected by the Dolphins since the team chose quarterback Josh Heupel, who was picked in the sixth round (177th overall) in the 2001 draft. He is the 11th player from Oklahoma and second defensive tackle (Barron Tanner) to be selected by Miami in the franchise’s history. Other Sooners that have been drafted by Miami include: Aubrey Beavers, Greg Johnson, Jackie Shipp, David Overstreet, Uew von Schamann, Karl Baldischwiler, Clyde Russell and Jim Riley.
