Former NC State Defensive Tackle Larrell Murchison Added to Titans Practice Squad

Former NC State Defensive Tackle Larrell Murchison has been added to the the Titans Practice Squad after being released by them yesterday.

Murchison was drafted by Tennessee in the 5th round of the 2020 NFL Draft, and has played in 21 games for the Titans over his first two seasons, starting in 5.

In 2020, Tennessee signed Murchison to a 4-year rookie contract worth up to $3.57 million, but obviously that contract was nixed after two years. In his first two seasons, Murchison earned $1.38 million.

At NC State, Murchison earned 2nd Team All ACC honors in 2019. What made Murchison’s rise to All-ACC status, and ultimately being drafted so impressive, is the fact that he spent his first 2 collegiate seasons at Louisburg (JUCO) before transferring to NC State.

Here’s a look at Murchison’s stats at NC State:

Murchison is 1 of 16 Practice Squad players that Tennessee signed. Here’s a look at what Practice Squad players make in the NFL.
