homePhone Attribute still displaying in MS Teams for some users

I'm currently implementing Mitel Revolution which uses a AD Sync to pull telephone numbers into the system for SMS texting. I had started to enter personal cellphones into the homePhone attribute field of our Local AD and noticed it was showing up inside Microsoft Teams when you hover over someone's emblem and look at their contact information. I went into my AD Connect and stopped the replication of this attribute before I continued on with my project of getting the data entered into AD.

The thing I'm noticing is a few users are still having their homePhone display even though it's no longer syncing. I went out and looked around to see where it could be removed and after using PowerShell to go into MSGraph and AzureAD I can't see any record of this attribute listed, yet it persists to show up, even though I'm not seeing it in AzureAD or anywhere else.

How do I PURGE this field from MS Teams when it displays contact information. It's been over 48 hours, I've cleared my Team's cache in case that was the issue but its still hanging around and I want to keep this information confidential.
