Garrett Murphy, ATH
Garret Murphy is a kid who showed up a lot in this game for the defense. Murphy is a very shifty player that has a very smooth pursuit angle when it comes to tracking down the ball. Murphy is a class of ’23 athlete that has a lot of potential and growth ahead of him and his career. I am looking forward to seeing what this kid pulls out of his sleeve in the near future for the Eagles. Just call him Houdini because this kid is magical, especially with him having 5 tackles, 4 solos, 2 assists, and 1 tackle for loss.
Devan Moss, DB
Devan Moss is another impactful player for the Eagles. He shows a true sign of leadership and athleticism. Moss is a player that is on the rise for the class of 2023. Moss had made quite a few plays, stuffing gaps and making tackles in open space. Moss had made a huge hit throughout the game that lit up his defense with a higher level of confidence. Moss is a player that plays with intensity and is determined to win at all times and be the best at his position. Moss shows up to every game with his team and teammates on his back to fight for his brothers. Moss’s technique shows a whole lot when he gets his opportunity to make big plays. He said Keep his hips and shoulders parallel with the line of scrimmage as much as possible by allowing himself to not make any false steps, which are things college coaches look for, and he has the ability to be great at the next level for any team.
