Philadelphia Eagles running back DeMarco Murray (hamstring) is listed as questionable for the team's Week 3 matchup against the New York Jets. Murray hurt his hamstring in practice on Wednesday and sat out Thursday before returning to practice on Friday without limitations. Despite the recent injury, Murray is expected to suit up.
DeMarco Murray injury update: RB questionable, expected to play for fantasy owners
The Philadelphia Eagles running back is listed as questionable for Week 3. We break down the fantasy implications.
Fantasy impact: While Murray is expected to play on Sunday, his workload is in question. In addition to the worry over his hamstring, Murray has had an extremely rough start to the season. Through two games, the 2014 rushing champion has racked up 11 yards rushing on 21 carries for an atrocious 0.5 YPC. While he found the end zone twice in Week 1, the Eagles’ offensive line has been a disaster. Things won’t get any easier when they take on the Jets. Their front seven gives up the second-fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs. Owners without a viable alternative would be wise not to expect much more than RB2 production this week.
