Derek Phillips Today
Like many of his co-stars, Friday Night Lights became Derek Philip’s breakout role. His 60 episodes on the show as Billy Riggins opened up doors for his career, and in no time at all, he would appear in over a dozen TV shows and half as many movies.
Derek also took up voice acting in the early 2010s in both TV shows and video games. You might hear a familiar voice in games like Fallout 4 and The Last of Us Part II. In 2021, he was cast to voice Lt. Wade Jackson in Call of Duty: Vanguard, as well as provide the motion animation for the video game character.
