You may have to scroll to page 33, but Murphy looks to be sharper, bigger, stronger. LOOK OUT

Per Mike Jones of the Washington Post, it appears that veteran Alfred Morris, rookie Matt Jones and Trent Murphy saw their share of time in the Washington Redskins backfield during last week’s minicamp.

That’s great news if you’re Morris and Jones, a pair of running backs. Murphy, of course, is an outside linebacker who hopes to help new defensive coordinator Joe Barry put the ‘Skins back on track on this side of the ball.

As a rookie, the former Stanford standout played in 15 contests and started the final eight games of the season after Brian Orakpo went down. Murphy totaled 32 tackles, 2.5 sacks, a pair of forced fumbles and one fumble recovery. According to Pro Football Focus, he graded out quite well in his 595 snaps but still has some work to do in terms of pass coverage.

It sounds like he’ll be getting his chances.
