CB Sean Murphy-Bunting is EXACTLY what Mike Vrabel wants: Titans Film Breakdown
In this film breakdown, we take a look at the Tennessee Titans newest CB, Sean Murphy-Bunting, a former 2nd round pick, who has played 53 games in his 4 seasons with the Bucs.
Murphy-Bunting brings great positional versatility to the Titans secondary, and is a fantastic athlete who fits the bill of what Titans coach Mike Vrabel has been publicly calling for since the end of the 2022 season. He possesses all the skills necessary for a great slot corner, but struggles in zone coverage at times, and is inconsistent at the catch point, despite being more than capable of making the play. Overall, he is a good addition to the Titans secondary, and should be a nice complementary piece to Elijah Molden and Kevin Byard.
