The Tennessee Titans are listing DeMarco Murray as questionable to face the Cleveland Browns in Week 7. Murray is battling a hamstring injury suffered Monday, which kept him out of practice on Wednesday and Thursday, though he did get a limited session in on Friday.
Murray has been one of the more productive fantasy backs this season, even with the young Derrick Henry nipping at his heels. However, we may have seen a changing of the guard in Week 6, where Murray was nicked up on several occasions, allowing Henry to play more and have a monster game.
That could lead to a 50-50 split between Henry and Murray going forward, especially if the latter is hobbled on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact: If Murray is active, he faces a Browns defense allowing the ninth-fewest fantasy points to running backs this season. As long as Murray is active, start him, but be prepared to have a replacement if he’s inactive.
