Latavius Murray will once again take over as the Minnesota Vikings' starting running back after Dalvin Cook was ruled out for Week 7 against the New York Jets with a hamstring injury, according to ESPN.com's Courtney Cronin.
Cook battled a hamstring problem last week, as well, which took him out of action against the Arizona Cardinals. While serving as Cook's backup and injury replacement, Murray has performed well. Through six games, he has 261 yards and one touchdown on 54 carries. He also caught 10 passes for 63 yards.
Murray's monster showing in Week 6 inflates his overall production on the ground.
