DeMarco Murray interested in Eagles
Murray’s call was enough to jump-start tepid interest from the Eagles, despite their signing of former Chargers running back Ryan Mathews. Murray is flying to Philadelphia to meet with Eagles officials on Thursday, a league source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter on Wednesday night.
The obstacle for Murray signing with the Eagles still would be money, a source said, as Kelly has made it publicly and privately clear the team will be financially prudent in their personnel decisions.
During his discussion with Kelly, a source said Murray characterized Bradford, who was acquired by the Eagles from the Rams on Tuesday, as one of his best friends. Both operated successfully out of Oklahoma’s spread offense when they were teammates from 2007-09. Murray also played the 2010 season at Oklahoma after Bradford moved on to the NFL.
