Coach Mike Vrabel said Monday that Murphy-Bunting has been cleared of a concussion, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reports.
Murphy-Bunting was forced out of Sunday's 27-3 loss at Cleveland after taking a blow to the head, but ultimately he avoided a major injury. He's still one of Tennessee's top two cover corners going into Week 4.

Being evaluated for concussion
Published: 2023-09-24
Murphy-Bunting left Sunday's game against Cleveland and is being evaluated for a concussion, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
Murphy-Bunting departed in the fourth quarter and is now in the NFL's concussion protocol. Before his exit, he recorded six tackles (all solo). He'll need to pass through the protocol before next Sunday's contest versus Cincinnati in order to be able to play in that game.
Strikes deal with Tennessee
Published: 2023-03-20
Murphy-Bunting agreed Monday on a one-year contract with the Titans, Matt Moraitis of USA Today reports.
Murphy-Bunting can make up to $5 million next season with Tennessee, the second stop of his career following four seasons with the Buccaneers. The cornerback appeared in 12 games in 2022, recording a career-low 31 tackles while also producing seven pass breakups, two interceptions and a forced fumble. Murphy-Bunting will step right into a prominent role in the Titans secondary and has a shot at earning himself a long-term contract with a "prove-it" deal in 2023.
Solid season in 2022
Published: 2023-01-25
Murphy-Bunting finished the 2022 regular season with 31 tackles (19 solo), two interceptions, five additional pass breakups and one forced fumble across 12 games.
The fourth-year defensive back added six tackles (four solo) during the wild-card loss to the Cowboys. Murphy-Bunting missed five games overall due to quadriceps injuries, but by the numbers, he turned in his most effective season in coverage yet. Murphy-Bunting surrendered a paltry 37.5 percent completion rate and 3.9 yards per attempt as a primary defender across 411 defensive snaps, and both his interception and total pass-breakups tallies ranked as the second-highest marks of his career. An unrestricted free agent at the start of the new league year, Murphy-Bunting could garner an high-priced deal on the open market as an up-and-coming cornerback.
