Phillips' $112M deal demands productivity; must improve from Eagles role.

Panthers edge rusher signed to a four-year, $112 million contract after being traded from the Eagles, where he became the team's leading pressure generator after his arrival. He must now be more productive for Carolina, which won the division last year. The Panthers were really bad on third down and tied for 28th in sacks with 30 last season, so Phillips is expected to help them get off the field on money downs and improve their pass rush. He has had a history of injuries, so staying healthy is critical. He is expected to be the guy in Carolina and has been vocal in meetings and on the field as a leader. The contract dictates that he must perform and prove why he earned the deal.
