Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As Morning News contributor Jon Machota notes, getting an update on Murray’s health status has been common since he was selected by the Cowboys in the third round of the 2011 NFL Draft. Murray has missed nine games the last two seasons because of foot and ankle injuries. Murray also missed some time during off-season activities this year with a strained hamstring. In 23 career games, Murray has rushed for 1,560 yards, which includes a franchise record 253-yard day against the St. Louis Rams in 2011. If Murray stayed healthy for an entire season, what would he be capable of? While on ESPN's “First Take,” Murray was asked if he was capable of a 2,000-yard season like his friend, Minnesota’s Adrian Peterson. “I think I’m capable of anything,” Murray said. ... Of course he does. Step one, however, is proving he can remain on the field for 16 games.
