  • Season-high seven stops

    Murray recorded seven tackles (six solo) on 48 total snaps in Sunday's 17-10 loss to the Titans.

    Analysis: Murray logged his most productive outing while seeing his most extensive playing time of the season. The 28-year-old also logged 29 defensive snaps compared to just 18 for starting strong safety Jonathan Owens. Murray has now played 39 of his 42 defensive snaps this season over the past two weeks.

  • Active during camp

    Murray (shoulder) is active during training camp this week, Jordan Pun of Texans Wire reports.

    Analysis: Murray had a busy offseason, undergoing surgery and signing a new two-year contract. Now healthy, Murray should resume his role as the starter at strong safety for the Texans.

  • Shoulder surgery revealed

    Murray underwent shoulder surgery during the offseason, Aaron Wilson of SportsTalk 790 AM reports.

    Analysis: The surgery slipped through the news cracks during the offseason but came to light this week when Murray did not practice as Houston began its OTAs. "We don't have many guys that are out completely. Jonathan Greenard and a few of our other players, Eric Murray, you see some of the guys had offseason surgeries and you probably won't see them until training camp, but everybody's right on schedule being able to do something," head coach Lovie Smith said. Murray is expected to be ready for training…read more

  • Lands two-year extension

    Murray agreed to a two-year, $10 million contract extension with the Texans on Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

    Analysis: Murray has spent the last two years in Houston, and he's had the best two seasons of his career with the Texans. He appeared in 16 games last year and recorded 76 tackles (48 solo), an interception and four pass defenses. The 28-year-old is in line to serve as a starting safety once again in 2022.

  • Restored from COVID list

    The Texans have activated Murray (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list.

    Analysis: Murray will presumably slide back into his role as the team's starting safety for Sunday's matchup with the 49ers, assuming he avoids any setbacks.

  • Bound for COVID-19 list

    Murray tested positive for the coronavirus Thursday and will be placed on the Texans' reserve/COVID-19 list, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.

    Analysis: Murray, cornerback Lonnie Johnson and defensive linemen Roy Lopez and Jordan Jenkins are among the Texans who tested positive Thursday, bringing the organization's total number of players on the reserve/COVID-19 list or practice squad/COVID-19 list up to 22. Jonathan Owens is currently the only healthy safety on the roster, as Justin Reid is working his way back from a concussion and is uncertain to play Sunday against the Chargers. Murray will have a chance to come off the list ahead of the…read more

  • Eight tackles in win

    Murray had eight tackles (four solo) and one pass deflection during Sunday's 30-16 win over the Jaguars.

    Analysis: Over his last six games, Murray has accumulated 41 tackles and three pass deflections. The 27-year-old has carved out a sizeable role in the Texans' secondary this season, but his lack of turnovers makes him a low-upside fantasy option in IDP leauges.

  • Thrives in return to starting role

    Murray had 11 tackles and one pass defensed in Houston's 22-13 win over Tennessee in Week 11.

    Analysis: Murray returned to a starting role last week after the Texans moved Lonnie Johnson from safety to cornerback. He was on the field for 94 percent of the defensive snaps and has played well recently, totaling 19 tackles, two passes defensed and one interception over the last two games. He was originally a starter at safety to start the season but got lost in the shuffle as defensive coordinator Lovie Smith searched for the right combination on the back end. It appears Murray and Justin Reid may…read more

  • Promoted to starting safety

    Murray has been promoted to the role of starting strong safety, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.

    Analysis: Murray is taking the starting safety job from Lonnie Johnson, who is moving back to cornerback. Murray, who started for the Texans in the first three weeks of the season, was on the field for 69 defensive snaps Week 9 against Miami and recorded an interception. The veteran safety will resume his starting role after struggling late in 2020 and to start this season.

  • Heads to COVID-19 list

    Murray was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Sunday.

    Analysis: Murray won't play in Sunday's game against the Bengals. This will be his first missed game of the season. Murray's produced a career-high 71 tackles through 14 games to go along with two sacks and two pass breakups. Jonathan Owens and A.J. Moore will cover for him at strong safety in Week 16.

  • Leads in tackles

    Murray recorded a team-high 11 tackles and two sacks on blitzes in Sunday's 36-7 loss to the Bears.

    Analysis: This was not the finest hour for the Texans defense, which allowed Mitch Trubisky and the Bears' offense to shred them. The sacks were the first of the season for Murray, who now has a career-high 66 tackles in 13 games.

  • Records seven tackles

    Murray had seven tackles in Thursday's 34-20 loss to the Chiefs in Week 1.

    Analysis: Murray is part of a revamped secondary, which was a sore spot in 2019. The unit held up well considering Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes was rarely under pressure. The issues on defense were an inability to stop the running game, limited pressure and missed tackles.

  • Heading to Houston

    Murray agreed to a three-year deal potentially worth $20.25 million with the Texans on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Murray played in only three games following Cleveland's Week 7 bye last season due to a knee injury, and he finished the year with 24 tackles (15 solo), one sack and one pass defensed in nine games. The 26-year-old started 11 of 45 games over the previous three seasons with the Chiefs before being shipped to the Browns in April 2019.

  • Free agency looms

    Murray recorded 15 tackles, one sack and one pass defensed over nine games in 2019.

    Analysis: Murray was part of the safety rotation before a midseason knee injury cost him a good portion of the second half. He returned for the final two games and will enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent. With 54 games of NFL experience over four seasons, Murray will find a home with some team in 2020.

  • Avoids inactive list

    Murray (knee) is active Week 16 against Baltimore.

    Analysis: Murray will return after a seven-game absence, but the number of snaps available for him is a bit of a question mark with Damarious Randall and Juston Burris locking down the two starting safety spots. Murray started over Burris earlier in the season, accumulating a total of 23 tackles across seven games.

  • Questionable for Sunday

    Murray (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against Baltimore, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Murray upgraded to a full practice Friday after two limited sessions to begin the week. He's missed the last seven games with the issue.

  • Ruled out Sunday

    Murray has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

  • Trending in right direction

    Murray (knee) is progressing well in his recovery and could return Sunday in Arizona, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Head coach Freddie Kitchens sounded cautiously optimistic about Murray's status ahead of the Browns' Week 15 matchup with the Cardinals. The 25-year-old safety has missed Cleveland's previous six games, so Murray's return would certainly boost the Browns' secondary.

  • Sitting out Week 14

    Murray (knee) is inactive Week 14 against the Bengals.

    Analysis: Murray worked in practice as a limited participant all week, but still entered the divisional matchup with a "doubtful" tag. He'll end up missing his sixth consecutive game, as expected, paving the way for the tandem of Damarious Randall and Juston Burris to hold down the safety positions.

  • Listed as doubtful

    Murray (knee) is doubtful for Sunday's contest against the Bengals, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Murray has missed four consecutive contests while working to recover from knee surgery, and he's trending toward sitting out Sunday's divisional tilt versus Cincinnati. Sheldrick Redwine will continue seeing an uptick in snaps as long as Murray remains sidelined.

  • Won't suit up Sunday

    Murray (knee) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Murray will miss his fourth-straight contest as he works to recover from knee surgery undergone in early November. He has yet to resume practicing. As long as Murray is unable to go, Shedrick Redwine will continue to play an expanded depth role in Cleveland's secondary.

  • Still absent from practice

    Murray (knee) has yet to return to practice since undergoing surgery Nov. 1, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Shedrick Redwine will continue serving as Cleveland's top reserve safety as long as Murray remains out with a knee injury. The 25-year-old has missed the past four weeks and hasn't played since Oct. 27.

  • Out fourth straight game

    Murray (knee) was ruled out for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Murray didn't practice again this week as he continues to be sidelined while recovering from early-November knee surgery. Shedrick Redwine should serve as the top reserve safety in his absence since Justin Burris is starting after Morgan Burnett landed on injured reserve.

  • Won't play Thursday

    Murray (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday night's divisional showdown against the Steelers.

    Analysis: Murray will sit for a third-straight week after undergoing knee surgery Nov. 1. He'll benefit from an extended break, because of the Thursday kickoff, but Murray still faces an uphill battle to play Week 12. In his absence, Juston Burris figures to handle the main reserve role.

  • Still battling knee injury

    Murray (knee) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice estimate, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Murray appears to be a long shot to suit up Thursday against the Steelers after undergoing knee surgery Nov. 1. He still has Tuesday and Wednesday to retake the practice field, but the Browns may opt to rest him with the "mini bye" due to the Thursday game. If that's the case, Juston Burris will take over the main reserve role behind Morgan Burnett and Damarious Randall.

  • Ruled out, as expected

    Murray (knee) is ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Bills, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Murray underwent knee surgery Nov. 1, so it's not much of a surprise that he'll miss a second consecutive contest as he works to recover. With Damarious Randall still nursing a hamstring injury, Juston Burris could be in line for increased snaps once again Week 10.

  • Week-to-week after sugery

    Murray underwent knee surgery Friday and is considered week-to-week.

    Analysis: Murray clearly won't be able to play Sunday against the Broncos and also seems like a longshot to be available for Week 10. Juston Burris could see increased reps at safety with Damarious Randall (hamstring) also ruled out, per Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal.
