Sean Murphy-Bunting Won't Play Against Eagles
3 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting (hamstring) is officially inactive for the wild-card playoff game against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. Murphy-Bunting was a limited practice participant all week, but his hamstring was bothering him during pre-game warmups, so he will not suit up. The good news is that cornerback Carlton Davis (back) will play after coming into Sunday's game questionable. Murphy-Bunting has been a starter for Tampa's secondary when healthy, but he has played in only nine games (eight starts) this year, recording 43 tackles (30 solo) and a forced fumble. The Buccaneers secondary is their weakness on defense, but the Eagles were the leading rushing attack in the NFL this year, so it will be interesting to see how they attack the Bucs defense.
