Cardinals Make First Outside Free Agency Signing
ARIZONA -- The Arizona Cardinals welcome a veteran presence to their cornerback room.
From NFL insider Mike Garafolo:
"The #AZCardinals have agreed to terms with CB Sean Murphy-Bunting, source says. Former second-round pick of the #Buccaneers heads to the desert after a year with the #Titans."
Financial terms of the deal have yet to be released.
The addition is much needed to a Cardinals CB room that heavily relied on rookies such as Garrett Williams, Kei'Trel Clark and Starling Thomas V last season.
Murphy-Bunting has been a consistent name tied to the Cardinals for the last two offseasons now, and his presence in the desert finally comes to fruition.
Murphy-Bunting, 26, entered the league as a second-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He spent last season with the Tennessee Titans, starting 14 games.
Through four years of his career, Murphy-Bunting has played in 53 games with 188 tackles, 21 pass deflections and six interceptions. He also has four forced fumbles with one fumble recovery to his name.
Arizona entered this offseason with over $50 million in cap space.
Murphy-Bunting is the first outside addition after bringing back guys such as Jesse Luketa, Greg Dortch, L.J. Collier and Carter O'Donnell.
