Born in Turners Cross, Cork, Mullins first arrived on the inter-county scene when he first linked up with the Cork senior team. He made his senior debut during the 1923 championship. Mullins was a regular member of the panel over the next few years and won All-Ireland medal and one Munster medal as a non-playing substitute.

At club level Mullins began his career with Nemo Rangers, with whom he won one championship medal in the intermediate grade. He later lined out with Redmonds.

Throughout his career Murphy made three championship appearances. He retired from inter-county hurling following the conclusion of the 1926 championship.
