Dallas Cowboys running back DeMarco Murray (foot) practiced in full on Wednesday. Murray has suffered various injuries throughout his two-year career, missing six games earlier this season, but has played in each of the last four. This makes it a basic certainty that Murray will be available when the Cowboys play the Redskins in Week 17 for the NFC East title.
DeMarco Murray injury: Full practice should calm any fantasy value fears
In their biggest game of the season, Dallas should have their starter ready to go. We break down the fantasy implications.
Layne Murdoch
Murray has 587 yards on 144 carries with four touchdowns this season. He has not rushed for over 100 yards since Week 1.
Fantasy Take: Murray carried the ball just 11 times for 40 yards on Sunday against the Saints in a loss. The Redskins are fifth in the NFL against the run but that is mostly because they are the most passed-on team in the league. Washington is 15th in the NFL in yards per carry allowed.
Murray rates as a low-end RB2, as the Cowboys may be throwing it a lot on a weak secondary.
