Jacksonville Jaguars meeting with Latavius Murray could shake up running backs

Chris Ivory and T.J. Yeldon were a major letdown for the Jacksonville Jaguars and the team desperately needs to create a strong ground game to complement Blake Bortles and the aerial attack. Enter Latavius Murray, free agent running back from the Oakland Raiders.

Over the last three seasons, Murray has been one of the more intriguing running backs in the NFL. His 1066-yard 2015 season helped prove he was legit and he followed that up with 788 yards in 14 games in 2016. His 4.2 yards per attempt over his career speaks to his ability to put up impressive yardage totals if given the opportunities to carry the rock.
