6 years agoMinnesota Vikings running back Latavius Murray has been excellent over the past three weeks, totaling 280 rushing yards and four touchdowns over that span. In Week 9, he has a matchup against the Detroit Lions who possess one of the worst run defenses in the NFL. They are allowing an average of 139 yards per game on the ground. Dalvin Cook (hamstring) is questionable for the contest, but it would be surprising if the Vikings rushed him back before their bye week. Murray is a solid RB2 play if Cook remains out.--Raymond Harrison - RotoBaller
