Joining Vikings Murphy (back) has agreed to a two-year, $22 million contract with the Vikings, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact Murphy was selected by the Cardinals in the second round of the 2019 NFL Draft and has spent the the last four seasons there. During that span, he accumulated 223 tackles (178 solo), three sacks, 34 passes defensed and five interceptions. He will now look for a fresh start in Minnesota as one of its starting cornerbacks.

Going to injured reserve The Cardinals placed Murphy (back) on injured reserve Saturday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.

Impact Sidelined since Week 10 with a lingering back issue, Murphy now will miss the rest of the campaign with the Cards out of the playoff picture. The 2019 second-round pick thus will finish his fourth season as a pro with 36 tackles, two fumble recoveries (one returned for a TD) and a half sack in nine appearances. Murphy will be an unrestricted free agent this offseason, so it remains to be seen where he'll be suiting up next fall.

Remains out Murphy (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against Tampa Bay, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Impact Murphy will miss a sixth straight game due to a back injury. Antonio Hamilton (back) is questionable, so if he joins Murphy on the sidelines, Christian Matthew and Jace Whittaker would be candidates for increased roles again.

DECEMBER 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Still out Murphy (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Broncos, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact Murphy didn't practice at all during Week 15 prep, so it's not surprising to see him ruled out for a fifth straight game. Antonio Hamilton (back/illness), who'd been filling in for Murphy, and Marco Wilson (neck) are listed as questionable, so Arizona's secondary may be extremely depleted against Russell Wilson and Denver's offense.

DECEMBER 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Out Monday Murphy (back) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup with the Patriots, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Impact Murphy was unable to practice during the week and will now miss his fourth straight game. As a result, Antonio Hamilton figures to be in line for another start at cornerback. The 24-year-old Murphy's next chance to return will come Week 15 in Denver.

DECEMBER 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Remains sidelined in practice Murphy (back) was a non-participant in the Cardinals' practice Thursday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.

Impact Murphy has been dealing with a back injury since last October, which has left him sidelined during each of Arizona's last three games. Despite coming off a bye Week 13, the 24-year-old cornerback is still considered day-to-day heading into Monday's game against the Patriots, per Urban. Murphy will now have two more opportunities to work his way back into practice, or else Antonio Hamilton could be tapped to start his fourth consecutive game Week 14.

NOVEMBER 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't practice Thursday Murphy (back) was listed as a non-participant on the Cardinals' injury report Thursday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Murphy has been dealing with a lingering back injury since late October, which kept him sidelined for the first time this season during Sunday's win over the Rams. According to Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com, the cornerback would not give a definitive statement on his status for the Cardinals' Week 11 game versus the 49ers, though he did say that the extra day to prepare ahead of Monday Night Football will definitely play a factor in his availability. Murphy is also still receiving treatment for this back issue, and he'll have two more practices to increase his activity before Saturday's final injury report.

NOVEMBER 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Considered day-to-day Murphy is expected to undergo tests on his back Monday, according to head coach Kliff Kingsbury, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Impact Murphy missed Sunday's win over the Rams due to the injury, which was his first missed game of the season. The fourth-year pro was unable to practice last week, and despite the need for tests on his back, it seems like he does have a chance to play Week 11 against the 49ers, considering Klingsburry referred to him as day-to-day.
