Minnesota Vikings beat writer Matt Vensel believes Latavius Murray will open the 2017 season as the No. 2 rusher on the depth chart behind Dalvin Cook. (Matt Vensel on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
If Murray does, in fact, open the 2017 season as Cook's primary backup, Vensel believes he will also assume the role of the team's short-yardage/ goal line back. Scoring 20 touchdowns in his first three seasons in the NFL (12 in 2016), Murray should be considered a fine low-end RB2/ flex option who could garner an increased workload should the rookie struggle.
