In a significant development for the Duke Blue Devils football program, quarterback Maalik Murphy has announced his intention to enter the NCAA transfer portal. According to multiple reports, Murphy will not participate in Duke’s upcoming game against Ole Miss in the Gator Bowl. Murphy’s decision comes after his season with Duke, where he showcased his talent and potential but faced heightened competition at the quarterback position. ‘It’s a very tough decision but one I believe is necessary for my career,’ Murphy expressed. The 6-foot-4, 240-pound quarterback played sparingly this past season, with the coaching staff focusing on establishing a starter. Murphy’s exit adds to the ongoing turmoil surrounding the Duke football program, which has undergone numerous challenges this season. Meanwhile, questions arise regarding Duke’s strategy for recruiting and developing its quarterback position moving forward. Duke’s head coach will look to make critical decisions during the offseason to ensure the team remains competitive in the ACC.
