However, although obvious, in practice, you weren’t allowed to beat a quarterback, especially in light of Lawrence, who was one of the most heralded prospects in the history of college football.
Murphy reiterated that and noted that he hopes to make it to Lawrence under the bright lights of Monday night football.
“I never got close to Trevor at Clemson. If you touch him, they’ll kick you out of coaching,” Murphy said, via Jeff Hopson.
Murphy has seen his role increased with the absence of Sam Hubbard over the past few weeks. Unfortunately, for the No. 28 overall pick in 2023 NFL draftThis opportunity did not necessarily translate into a lot of success.
He recorded just his second sack of the season against Pittsburgh and finished the game with three tackles. He’s a 6-foot-5 power forward, and the team has high expectations for their young defensive end.
