The New England Patriots announced the signing of defensive tackle Bill Murray to a futures contract on Monday.
Murray, 24, entered the league as part of the organization’s undrafted class in 2020. The William & Mary product spent his initial two campaigns on the practice squad after finishing his FCS career as a team captain and two-time All-Colonial Athletic Association selection.
Prior to clearing waivers at the 53-man roster deadline last August, Murray registered two sacks through 81 defensive snaps in the preseason. He was also credited by Pro Football Focus for seven quarterback hurries, two stops and one batted pass.
