Ed Werder, ESPN.com:

DeMarco Murray’s confusion and frustration over the lack of playing time and how he fits into Chip Kelly’s offense prompted the running back to have a lengthy conversation with Philadelphia Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie following Sunday’s game, sources told ESPN.

The 2014 NFL rushing champion with the Dallas Cowboys, Murray doesn’t want to be a distraction — especially after the Eagles beat the New England Patriotsfor the team’s biggest victory of the season. Murray, however, played on just 14 offensive plays, gaining 24 yards on eight carries.

“He’s obviously upset about what happened,” a source close to Murray said.

Of course intrepid Cowboys reporter Ed Werder has this story. Of course he does! I’m now fully convinced DeMarco Murray is a mole. The NFC East is like a bizarro version of Homeland— just no idea who the sleeper agent is. Former Cowboys Murray and Austin are (were) actively working against the Eagles. In Washington, former Eagle DeSean takes a strange 20-yard backwards route and fumbles football to Cowboys, leveling the division playing field to the point of the absurd. And in New York, one of their linemen nearly blew his hand off with homemade explosives. You don’t know who’s good a guy, a bad guy, or just flat-out bad. I think Miles Austin was just flat-out bad. But Murray? I’m not so sure. I mean, like maybe he has some moments where he contemplates not carrying out his destructive mission… he seems like a nice enough guy. But then, a scene later, I imagine annoying Howie Roseman – with an overly involved character arc – walks in on him kneeling on his star rug and bowing at the alter of Jerry. Murray’s been turned, and no amount of local support will change that. The Eagles took care of Austin, now it’s time to kill off DeMarco, lest this drags on too long and, three years from now, we’re wondering why, for the love of God, he’s still in the picture. It takes a full four seasons to recover from this storyline if you let it waffle. Just cut him and take the cap hit. Move on. Find your Quinn – Kenjon Barner will do – and move on.
