Latavius Murray Could Struggle Against Colts
5 years agoNew Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray draws a tough matchup against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 15. After seeing a steady decrease in snaps from Weeks 11 to 13, Murray saw a slight uptick in Week 14. Alvin Kamara's struggles likely were the reason for his increased role, so it's unclear how much playing time he'll see against the Colts. Indianapolis is a tough matchup- they've allowed two running backs to post at least 50 scrimmage yards only four times this year, though one of those games was last week. The best-case scenario for Murray is he gets added carries again because of Kamara's struggles and finds his way into the end zone. It's possible, though too risky to count on in a crucial playoff matchup.
