High-upside EDGE with a power frame and three-star pedigree
Murphy is a 6-foot-4, 230-pound edge defender who committed to Massachusetts after being rated a three-star recruit by 247Sports, On3 and ESPN, and ranked No. 42 in Maryland by On3. At Bishop McNamara, he produced a tackle for loss, two quarterback hurries and a pass breakup while earning Second Team All-WCAC honors. What makes him interesting is the frame, length and multi-sport background that suggest room for more pass-rush growth, making him a fit for a staff that values developmental upside and physical tools over instant polish.
