Broncos rookie safety Ryan Murphy and his brother were detained and questioned Tuesday as part of a prostitution sting in San Jose, California.Murphy eventually was released and was not charged in the incident. The Broncos have sent Murphy home.
"Although practice squad safety Ryan Murphy was not cited by police, we decided it was best for the team if we continued our preparations for Super Bowl 50 without him," Broncos coach Gary Kubiak said in a statement. "Ryan is returning to Denver but his status as a practice squad player has not changed at this time."
The San Jose Mercury News reported that the sting involved Murphy's brother and was conducted by the Santa Clara County Sheriff's Police. The paper, citing sources, said the pair was questioned by sheriff's deputies Tuesday evening at a Motel 6 in north San Jose.
Murphy's brother, according to multiple reports, was cited for solicitation.
Murphy grew up in Oakland before playing at Oregon State. He was drafted by the Seahawks in the seventh round, but was waived last September. The Broncos signed him to their practice squad in November.

I hope he doesn't still qualify for a potential SB ring.

If he was at a motel 6, he was definitely "shacking" up!
