The Philadelphia Eagles need a running back after their LeSean McCoy trade and might have turned their attention to DeMarco Murray of the Dallas Cowboys.
Likely the best rusher available in free agency, Murray has been drawing hefty interest around the NFL though he needs to be careful if he opts to sign with the Eagles – that’s the word from his Dallas Cowboys teammate Dez Bryant.
Eagles player Malcolm Jenkins was doing so public recruiting of Murray on Twitter recently when Dez Bryant stepped in and essentially dared DeMarco Murray to sign with Philadelphia.
I don’t like the cowboys but I do like @DeMarcoMurray …. Come on over to the dark side bro! We’ll treat you good!

Bryant went on to clairify that he was only talking about football and it seems safe to say he was simply having a little fun, though there did seem to be a touch of seriousness in his tweet. Regardless, fun or not, it’s certainly going to make the headlines because of it being Dez Bryant.
