ANALYSIS: Latavius Murray has taken over control of the Minnesota backfield, scoring four touchdowns in his last four games. He punched his way into the end zone twice last week, rushing 15 times for 95 yards. Jerick McKinnon is still around and will see around 10 carries per game, but Murray is the man you want to own in this backfield. He has seen over 15 carries five weeks in a row now, and although he is not being used in the passing game he still holds value as an RB2 in standard formats.
Against a Lions defense that got torched by Jordan Howard last week, Murray is a must start in Week 12. Thursday games are always tough but Murray should put up solid fantasy numbers and is worth starting in all standard formats as he looks to score a touchdown for the third week in a row on Turkey Day.
