Before heading to the NFL Draft, linebacker Kenneth Murray will represent Oklahoma one more time on a national stage.
The 2020 State Farm All-Star Challenge pins 24 of the best football players (four from each conference) and runs them through a set of skill-based drills. Murray’s teammates for “Team Big 12” are former Kansas quarterback Carter Stanley two former TCU Horned Frogs, wide receiver Jalen Reagor and defensive tackle Ross Blaylock.
Murray is the ninth Sooner to participate in the event now in its twenty-second year. He joins Orlando Brown Jr. (2018), Mark Andrews (2018), Ogbonnia Okoronkwo (2018), Samaje Perine (2017), Dede Westbrook (2017), Juaquin Iglesias (2009), Mark Clayton (2005), and Jason White (2005) as Oklahoma participants.
Murray finished his 42 game career tied for eleventh in school history in total tackles (335) and is tied for eighth among Sooner linebackers in sacks (9.5). In his final season with Oklahoma, Murray earned AFCA second-team and AP third-team All-American honors.
The State Farm All-Star Football Challenge will be broadcasted on Friday, Feb. 1 at 8p.m. CT on ESPN2.
