Philadelphia Eagles running back DeMarco Murray is out against the New York Jets on Sunday.
The Philadelphia Eagles are trying to get their season on track against the New York Jets on Sunday, a team that has been surprisingly good to start the season.
They’ll have to do so without their big free agent acquisition on Sunday, running back DeMarco Murray.
DeMarco Murray OUT for Eagles today. So probably don’t start him in fantasy.

Murray is dealing with a hamstring injury but has failed to find his groove in the Eagles’ system. His numbers have been nowhere in the same vicinity of his streak of 100-yard games to begin last season with the Dallas Cowboys.
Perhaps it could be because of this injury.
Surprisingly earlier this morning, there were reports that Murray would be handling his normal workload.
My understanding is #Eagles RB rotation won’t be altered by the hamstring injury for DeMarco Murray. The hope is the production is better

Apparently it was his hamstring acting up that changed the Eagles’ plans on Sunday.
Here is a surprise: #Eagles RB DeMarco Murray is OUT. His hamstring did not respond well this morning.
