DeMarco Murray is Angry at Lack of Carries with the 1-3 Eagles
By Jason McIntyre
DeMarco Murray left Dallas for Philadelphia this offseason, though he didn’t really have a choice. The Cowboys were’t going to pay him what he wanted. Chip Kelly, on the heels of trading LeSean McCoy, would.
But through four games, the Eagles are a disappointing 1-3, and Murray has been a non-factor one season after leading the NFL in rushing.
Murray’s numbers:
8 carries, 9 yards vs Atlanta
13 carries, 2 yards vs Dallas
(missed the Jets game)
8 carries, 36 yards vs Washington
That’s 29 carries in three games; last year, after three games, he had 75 carries for 385 yards.
Here’s what DeMarco Murray told the media after the loss to the Redskins:
Is DeMarco Murray getting enough touches? Murray: "No, I'm not. I don't think I am."...Said he knew what he signed up for, but expected more
