NFL insider Paul Dehner Jr. posted a video on X showing Murphy seated on a cart heading to the locker room. Murphy later confirmed he needed an IV for cramping and said he expects to be back on the field on Sunday. The 24-year-old, a 2023 first-round pick, is entering the final year of his rookie contract after the Bengals declined his fifth-year option. The team's next preseason game is against the Chicago Bears on August 22. Murphy is expected to be available for that matchup. ## Coverage - hindustantimes.com This story was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
