The race for Defensive Rookie of the Year is going to be an interesting one. There have been a few really good players at the position and Minnesota Vikings edge rusher Dallas Turner was the early favorite to win the award.
One of the other early favorites to win the award was Seattle Seahawks defensive tackle Byron Murphy II, who was selected one spot ahead of Turner. The problem is that the graphic the NFL posted didn't include either of those players but rather sixth-year cornerback Byron Murphy Jr.
The individuals who run social media accounts make mistakes by including the wrong player, but this one is unique. What player was supposed to be in that spot?
Did they mean to put in Turner who shares a somewhat similar, but not identical hairstyle as Murphy or did they just put in the wrong Byron Murphy? Either way, having the wrong player on here isn't the best look.
It's also really funny, especially since Murphy is only 26 years old.
