ANALYSIS
Murray inked a three-year, $22.5 million contract with the Jaguars in 2025 after spending the five prior seasons with the AFC South rival Texans. He served as the Jaguars' starting safety, but he was sidelined for five games after being placed on injured reserve in October due to a neck injury. Murray was cleared to return in early November and returned to his starting role over the final six games of the season, including the Jaguars' AFC wild-card loss to the Bills. He should start at safety in 2026, though who will start next to him remains to be seen as Andrew Wingard will enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent.

2022 Fantasy Outlook
Murray's put together a pair of good seasons in Houston, with the team reworking the safety's contract during the offseason, giving him a two-year extension. That came after a roller coaster ride in 2021. Murray opened the year as a starter but was replaced by Lonnie Johnson in Week 4, as defensive coordinator (now head coach) Lovie Smith looked for the right combination in the secondary. Murray reclaimed the job Week 9 and helped solidify the back end, playing with Justin Reid. He finished out the season with 55 tackles, four passes defensed and one interception over his final eight games. Murray had offseason shoulder surgery but is slated to be ready for training camp.
