If it weren't for an unexpected hamstring injury that caused him to miss a game, DeMarco Murray likely would have been on last week's list as well. Unfortunately for him, it doesn't appear as if skipping a week did him any favors.
Not only is Murray lacking touches but he's not exactly setting the world on fire when he does end up getting the ball. In his first two games, Murray totaled 21 rushes for 11 yards. Even if you were to include his week four outing of eight rushes for 36 yards, you're still looking at a deplorable 1.6 yards per carry. He's simply not getting it done regardless of his workload.
Aside from one big game out of Ryan Mathews, the Philadelphia Eagles can't really seem to establish a consistent running game in general. Still, it can't be ignored that Mathews has been the more productive runner than Murray to this point. Throw in the fact that Darren Sproles is still being used as an effective weapon for this team and you're looking at a backfield riddled with question marks.
Going forward, there's really only two ways to view DeMarco Murray; he's either the perfect buy low candidate as his value will never be lower than it is right now or if you already own him, you're stuck with him for the entire year. If you can afford to deal away a piece for a potential RB upgrade down the line, go for it, otherwise there really isn't much you can do as a DeMarco Murray owner.
