Any questions of DeMarco’s Murray loyalty to the Eagles can be put to bed for the time being.
Murray reportedly answered — “100 percent. Yes,” he said when asked if he wanted to be an Eagle in 2016, according to NFL Media’s Albert Breer.

Murray finally admitted that he and Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie, did have a conversation about his usage on the team plane returning home from New England.
“that’s a conversation between Jeff and myself.” Murray brushed aside that there was anything to the conversation, saying he often sits next to the owner: “I can’t speak to my boss?”
Asked about regrets over signing with the Eagles:
“Not at all. I’m committed to Chip and Jeff and the guys in this locker room,” he said.
Murray played just 14 snaps during Sunday’s victory — with Darren Sproles and Kenjon Barner being more effective from a matchup standpoint.
It begs to reason that Kelly will have to eventually include some one back, fullback and conventional sets, that will allow Murray to flourish in a role he’s comfortable.
