• Joining Harrison Smith as Teammates a Bit Surreal for Byron Murphy
The cornerback said he experienced a similar feeling when he was drafted by Arizona in 2019 and got to play two seasons with eight-time Pro Bowler Patrick Peterson, who spent the past two seasons with Minnesota before joining Pittsburgh this offseason.
