Kenneth Murray was selected in a surprise move by the Chargers last year when they elected to trade their 2020 second and third-round picks to move back into the first to land the former Oklahoma linebacker.
As a rookie, Murray broke Derwin James’ single-season rookie tackle record with 106. Despite a slow start, he managed to find some positive momentum during the second half of the season. From week 10 and on, Murray recorded 52 tackles, four of his five tackles for loss, and his lone sack of the season, including a career-high 14 tackles against the Patriots in week 12.
