Latavius Murray Tallies 56 All-Purpose Yards In Week 5
6 years agoMinnesota Vikings running back Latavius Murray garnered 42 yards on 11 rushing attempts while reeling in two passes for 14 yards in a 23-21 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. It was his best game of the season production-wise, although it did not inspire many fantasy owners. Murray has been serving as the lead back lately with Dalvin Cook (hamstring) struggling with injuries. Even still, the Vikings' run game has been atrocious mainly due to a porous offensive line. They rank second-last in the league averaging just 65.8 rushing yards per game. Murray might see his carries dissipate if Cook is healthy for Week 6 so he should be avoided for fantasy purposes.
