With Landon Collins (ankle) doubtful and Nat Berhe (hamstring) already ruled out for Sunday's game against the Eagles, the Giants were in desperate need of added help at Safety. As a result, Murphy will suit up this weekend and likely see a decent amount of snaps given the injuries New York is currently dealing with in the secondary.
