Vikings RB Latavius Murray says he’s better now than in Pro Bowl season of 2015
Two years ago, Latavius Murray rushed for 1,026 yards for Oakland and made the Pro Bowl. He claims to be a better player now.
Murray got off to a slow start in his first season with the Vikings, but there have been few complaints about his play lately. Over the past five games, Murray has rushed for 399 of his 496 yards on the season, including 179 in the past two games.
“I think so,’’ Murray said Wednesday about being better than in 2015. “I think I’m continuing to get better each year. Each year I’ve been in the league, that’s my goal has been to try to get better even if it’s just a little bit, and I think I’ve been able to do that.’’
Murray, 27, said a key to his improvement has been in the mental part of the game.
“I think I’m getting smarter the older I get,’’ said Murray, averaging 3.8 yards per carry on the season. “I know as I get older, obviously my body gets older, and I think I just need to continue the mental part of it, and that allows me to go out and play fast.”
