WATCH: Texans DE DeMarcus Walker sacks Cardinals QB Kyler Murray

Houston Texans defensive end DeMarcus Walker was able to corral Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray for the second sack of the game.

Cornerback Desmond King told reporters on Oct. 21 that Murray, who can beat teams with his legs and his arm, needs to be kept in the pocket to have a chance to effectively neutralize him.

“That’s the thing about a duel threat quarterback, guy that can use his legs and his arms,” King said. “You have to keep these guys in the pocket. You can’t let them get out because it can get dangerous when a quarterback like him that knows how to move the pocket, get out of the pocket, and make plays and throws down the field. As long as we can keep him in the pocket and have guys in his face and us covering our man, I think we’ll be fine.”

Walker had 12 combined tackles heading into Week 7.
