Former Texas Longhorns defensive tackle Byron Murphy II was included on The Athletic’s “Freak List” ahead of the 2024 NFL Draft. Murphy most recently helped lead Texas’ wrecking crew of a defensive line to the final four-team College Football Playoff earlier this year.
From The Athletic: “He doesn’t have the heft of teammate T’Vondre Sweat, but the 6-1, 308-pounder is more disruptive and caused more problems for rival coaches. Murphy is super strong and explosive. I’m hearing there’s a decent chance he can run the 40 in the 4.8s.”
