DEN RB Latavius Murray - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 vs. Kansas City Chiefs
Latavius Murray was the Broncos' clear lead back in Week 13 against Baltimore, but that role was only good for 61 scoreless yards on 21 touches. It would appear Murray is locked into a solid workload on a weekly basis, but he is going to be highly inefficient as a 32-year-old running back playing in arguably the NFL's worst offense. Murray will also deal with serious game script concerns this week with the Broncos hosting the Chiefs' high-octane offense and Denver being 9.5 point underdogs at home. Murray is on the flex radar simply because he should see decent volume and will likely get any goal line carries the Broncos' offense manages to produce, but he, along with the rest of the Broncos, have a very low floor in fantasy.

DEN RB Latavius Murray - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 at Baltimore Ravens
Latavius Murray looks like the Broncos' workhorse by default at this point, with the Denver backfield ravaged by injuries and an incredibly inefficient offense. Marlon Mack exists on the roster, but he is unlikely to do more than change up the pace behind Murray given their usage this season. Murray should see plenty of touches down the stretch, but his main issue is that those are going to be very low-value touches made up primarily of carries on early downs for one of the league's worst offenses. The Broncos struggle to score more than one touchdown any given week, meaning the floor for everyone in the offense is stunningly low. Murray is worth a shot as a desperation flex play just based on volume, but the reality is things are just getting uglier in Denver at this point.

DEN RB Latavius Murray - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 at Carolina Panthers
We've reached a surreal point in the Broncos' season where Latavius Murray is now their unquestioned lead back following the release of Melvin Gordon and Chase Edmonds' injury. This backfield has been an utter disaster for fantasy since Javonte Williams went down with a torn ACL, but at least we now have some clarity on who will likely getting the majority of touches every week. That being said, the Broncos rank 32nd in total touchdowns and points per game on the season, reminding us that Murray is now the lead back for one of the NFL's worst offenses. You can start Murray based on pure volume and the off chance he gets a short touchdown, but there is not much upside here and he is a flex option at best against Carolina in Week 12.

DEN RB Latavius Murray - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 vs. Las Vegas Raiders
Latavius Murray played 31% of the Broncos'' offensive snaps in Week 10 and saw nine carries to go along with three targets. Murray only managed 47 scoreless yards on those opportunities as a part-time player in a bad offense. Given his role and the offensive situation in Denver, Murray has very little fantasy appeal and is entirely reliant on getting in the end zone to have a decent day. Murray should be on the bench in the vast majority of fantasy leagues.

DEN RB Latavius Murray - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 at Tennessee Titans
Latavius Murray looks set to be one-third of a committee in the Denver backfield alongside Melvin Gordon and the newly-acquired Chase Edmonds. Needless to say, a three-way backfield with usage uncertainty is not appealing for fantasy, particularly on a team that struggles to score points. The Titans have a solid run defense, which is the cherry on top of the reasons not to start any Broncos running back this week in fantasy leagues.

DEN RB Latavius Murray - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs. Jacksonville Jaguars (London)
Latavius Murray worked behind Melvin Gordon in Week 7 and got eight carries to go along with a pair of receptions. Murray does not have much upside as the lesser part of a split backfield in a bad offense. The Broncos will travel to London to take on the Jaguars and their mediocre run defense in Week 8, but Murray simply cannot be used as a starter in fantasy without an injury to Gordon to clear out some more opportunity.

DEN RB Latavius Murray - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs. New York Jets
Latavius Murray was signed to the Broncos off the Saints' practice squad and immediately received 15 carries in his Denver debut as the lead back on early downs with Melvin Gordon getting benched for the later parts of the game. Murray would normally be an interesting fantasy add under these circumstances, but Nathaniel Hackett has gone on the record stating that Gordon was not injured and will still start in Week 7. Hackett's comments are inconsistent with the recent RB deployment in Denver, making it difficult to project much of anything about how the individual players in that backfield will be used in Week 7. Murray is worth picking up off waivers, but he cannot be started until we have some more information on how the Broncos plan to use their RBs moving forward.
