Notches first career TD Murphy (ankle) compiled four tackles and two interceptions, including a pick-six, during Sunday's 31-19 victory at Jacksonville. Impact Murphy's practice reps were impacted during Week 3 prep, as he didn't get on the field Thursday before putting in a limited showing Friday. Deemed active before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, he didn't look worse for wear at all and managed to play all 68 snaps on defense for a second consecutive game. It's difficult to project high tackle totals for cornerbacks, and Murphy himself has put up a modest 54.1 tackles per 17 games through two-plus seasons. Still, if a playmaking gene emerges, he could begin to put himself into the IDP picture.
