Bengals DE Myles Murphy suffers apparent injury during joint practice with Colts

Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Myles Murphy suffered an apparent knee injury during Tuesday’s joint practice with the Indianapolis Colts.

According to Pro Football Network’s Jay Morrison, Murphy grabbed at his knee after a possible non-contact issue, and the practice’s drills were moved so that trainers could work with him.

Murphy did walk off under his own power alongside trainers initially, albeit slowly, per Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic.

A former first-round pick from 2023, Myles is a critical part of the pass-rushing rotation in 2024. He came on strong to finish his rookie year and is both a possible long-term starter on the edge and an immediate, potent bit of juice alongside Trey Hendrickson and Sam Hubbard.

If Murphy misses time, the Bengals could be in trouble for multiple reasons. Chief among those is the team already losing Cam Sample for the season, which already stresses a depth chart where Joseph Ossai and late-round rookie Cedric Johnson will have to step into bigger roles.

Hubbard is currently on his way back from an injury after avoiding a serious setback and Hendrickson was previously week-to-week, too.
