DeMarco Murray is officially no longer a member of the Dallas Cowboys. Last year's leading rusher in the NFL agreed to a deal with the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday that gives him over $20 million in guaranteed money and averages over $8 million per year for five years.

While Eagles fans were overwhelmingly excited, reactions to the news were mixed among Cowboys fans. Some burned their Murray jerseys, whereas others were glad that Dallas did not hand out a $40 million contract to a running back that just broke the 370-carry barrier last season.
Every running back in history that has exceeded 370 carries in a season has either been drastically less effective or more injury prone in the career after their heavy-workload season.
Count Murray's fiancée Heidi Mueller among those that are excited. After Murray signed his deal, Mueller wasted no time in sending out and retweeting tweets about Murray and indicating how excited they both are to be part of the Eagles organization.
