Paul Dehner's write-up on him after Washington:
DE Myles Murphy. He didn’t see a significant number of snaps Saturday. He missed last week with an illness, which left this game as a prime opportunity to create momentum for his role entering the season. Instead, he was hardly noticeable. That’s kind of been the case this month. You rarely see him making plays. Saturday was another example. There’s still plenty of time for the 21-year-old, and nobody is making any broad-brush statements, it’s just disappointing not to see more from the first-round pick.
Initially, I was fantasizing about the Bengals admitting they got this wrong, especially since Raymond Johnson III has balled out each preseason game. But Ossai's injury could make keeping both a non-issue.
I checked up on Andeike-Uzomah (the Chiefs first round pick) to compare and it looks like his stint in KC is similar to Murphy's here; but his stock is rising. Take that as you will.
