The Minnesota Vikings agreed to terms on a two-year deal with cornerback Byron Murphy, one of the top man-to-man defenders on the free agent market, sources told ESPN on Tuesday night.
Murphy's skill set will fit well in the scheme of new Vikings defensive coordinator Brian Flores, who likes to bring pressure and trust his corners to play in single coverage.
The Vikings are overhauling the position this offseason, having already parted with 2022 starters Patrick Peterson and Cameron Dantzler. Nickelback Chandon Sullivan is a pending free agent, as is Duke Shelley, who started five games at the end of last season.
