Byron Murphy II's Player Profile

Ian Cummings - Pro Football Network - January 20th: "At 6’1?, 308 pounds, he’s a twitched-up banshee on the attack with overwhelming torque and power capacity, and he also has the strength to hold strong in run defense — not dissimilar to Grady Jarrett."

Charlie Campbell - Walter Football - January 20th: "Murphy has good size and is tough at the point of attack. The 6-foot-1, 308-pounder is shorter and lacks some length, but he possesses some quickness and athleticism with developed strength."

Dane Brugler - The Athletic - January 16th: "Disruptive against both run and pass, Murphy had the best pass-rush win percentage (19.6) among all interior linemen in 2023 (no other DT was above 17.0 percent). He will get dinged by some for a lack of ideal length, but then he’ll run in the mid-4.7s at 300 pounds and provide a reminder that he is different."

Jordan Reid - ESPN - January 10th: "A versatile 3-technique, Murphy broke out in his first season as a starter, posting a 12.8% pressure rate and five sacks on the interior. He's also able to penetrate the first level against the run and make plays in the backfield (11 run stops)."
