Overcomes neck injury in 2025 Murray logged 54 tackles (32 solo), including 1.0 sacks, six pass defenses (one interception) and one forced fumble across 12 regular-season games for the Jaguars in 2025.

Impact Murray inked a three-year, $22.5 million contract with the Jaguars in 2025 after spending the five prior seasons with the AFC South rival Texans. He served as the Jaguars' starting safety, but he was sidelined for five games after being placed on injured reserve in October due to a neck injury. Murray was cleared to return in early November and returned to his starting role over the final six games of the season, including the Jaguars' AFC wild-card loss to the Bills. He should start at safety in 2026, though who will start next to him remains to be seen as Andrew Wingard will enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent.

Good to go vs. Indianapolis Murray (neck) is active for Sunday's game against the Colts.

Impact Murray has missed the Jaguars' last five games while on injured reserve due to a neck injury. He was activated from IR on Saturday, and the veteran safety has been officially cleared to return for Sunday's AFC South tilt. With Andrew Wingard (concussion) inactive, Murray and Antonio Johnson will likely serve as the Jaguars' starting safeties while Rayuan Lane and Cam'Ron Silmon-Craig serve as depth options.

Chance to suit up Sunday The Jaguars activated Murray (neck) from injured reserve Saturday.

Impact Murray was a full participant in practice during Week 14, and the activation from injured reserve means he has a good chance to suit up for Sunday's game against the Colts. The veteran safety last played in Week 7 against the Rams, and logged 371 defensive snaps in the 2025 regular season before sustaining the neck injury. The absence of current starter Andrew Wingard (concussion) could also be a key factor influencing Murray's chances to play.

Chance to return Week 14 Murray (neck) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.

Impact Murray was a full participant in practice during Week 14 , which has given the veteran safety a chance to be activated from injured reserve and return from a five-game absence due to a neck injury. If activated from injured reserve, Murray could be moved back into a starting spot at safety, especially with Andrew Wingard (concussion) ruled out.
