Cardinals adding CB Sean Murphy-Bunting

Murphy-Bunting played last season for the Titans and picked off two passes. He immediately projects as their No. 1 cornerback.

The Arizona Cardinals’ first outside move in free agency gets them a starting cornerback. According to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo, the Cardinals have agreed to terms with cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting who played last season for the Tennessee Titans.

The length and value of the deal were not immediately reported.

Murphy-Bunting has been in the league for five seasons. Drafted in the second round by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2019, he played four seasons there before signing a one-year, $3.5 million deal to play for Tennessee.

Last season, he played in and started 14 games, logging 57 tackles, two interceptions, eight pass breakups, two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery.

He immediately projects as the Cardinals’ No. 1 cornerback in a room that includes four players who were rookies in 2023.

If this is anything like the Cardinals did last offseason, it is probably a one or two-year deal.
