Byron Murphy

SEA • CB • #91

Seahawks signed No. 16 overall pick DT Byron Murphy to a four-year contract.

Murphy’s deal guarantees him just over $16 million over the next four years. He attended Friday’s rookie minicamp and will now be tasked with solidifying a Seahawks defense that ranked 23rd against the run per PFF and 31st in tackling. In his final season at Texas, Murphy totaled five sacks and 8.5 TFLs — both career-highs. It’s possible he has more to offer as a pass rusher once he gets some NFL coaching and improved talent around him.
