Continues to produce in Minnesota Murphy recorded 57 total tackles, 13 pass deflections, including three interceptions, and one forced fumble in 14 games for the Vikings during the 2023 regular season.

Impact Murphy was held out of the Vikings' last three games of the year due to a knee issue, but he was easily the team's most productive corner when healthy. In his first season of a two-year, $17.5 million deal that he signed with Minnesota this past offseason, the 26-year-old led the team in both pass deflections and interceptions. Murphy has struggled to stay on the field as of late though, missing 11 games over the past two seasons. Expect the Washington product to continue playing at a high level for the Vikings' defense in a contract-year in 2024.

Gets another interception Sunday Murphy recorded three tackles (three solo) and an interception in Sunday's 27-19 win versus the Saints.

Impact Murphy's interception came on a deep pass over the middle with less than two minutes remaining, sealing the game in favor of Minnesota. It was his second pick in as many weeks and his third of the season. He might not see quite as many reps in pass defense in Week 11 at Denver.

Grabs first INT of season Murphy recorded four tackles (two solo), three pass breakups and one interception during Sunday's 19-13 win over the Bears.

Impact Murphy made his first interception of the season, picking off backup quarterback Tyson Bagent with roughly two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. He could be in for another busy day Week 7 versus the 49ers if Christian McCaffrey (oblique) has to miss time and San Francisco isn't able to lean on the running game as reliably.
