Cincinnati Bengals first-round pick Myles Murphy led the charge for new members of the team at rookie minicamp this week.
Murphy, one of eight draft picks to already sign with the team, alongside 13 undrafted free agents to sign with the Bengals, was working in camp this past week on drills and conditioning.
He immediately stood out from the rest of the pack, which makes sense for a 6’5″, 270-pound edge rusher with incredible testing numbers.
Here are some of the best moments and takeaways from Murphy’s day at the office before he joins that pass-rush alongside the likes of Trey Hendrickson, Sam Hubbard and Joseph Ossai.

An observation on each #Bengals draft pick from the rookie minicamp:
1. Watch how low 6’5” 270 lb Myles Murphy gets going around the final pad. Greg Cosell uses the term “motorcycle lean” for pass rushers who can bend around the edge like that pic.twitter.com/fX101aHekw— Dan Hoard (@Dan_Hoard) May 12, 2023

Myles Murphy had the quote of the day at Bengals rookie minicamp.
Murphy will obviously wear No. 99 this season. The No. 98 he wore at Clemson already belongs to D.J. Reader.
"He said I could get the number for a price. I don't even want to know what that price is."
