Scouting report

NO RB Latavius Murray - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 at Buccaneers
Alvin Kamara's return to the lineup meant Murray went right back to simply being sprinkled into the offense, playing just 25% of the offensive snaps and touching the ball just seven times for 19 total yards. He's back as a low-end RB3/Flex play with four teams on a bye.

NO RB Latavius Murray - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs. Falcons
Murray was given a chance to shine with Alvin Kamara out with injury for two games and he took full advantage of that opportunity. Murray rushed for over 100 yards in both games and caught 14 passes between the two games, including a nine-catch outing in Week 8 against the Cardinals.

Kamara is likely set to return this week, but perhaps we'll finally see the Saints mix Murray in more than they had before Kamara's injury and give Murray a chance to really earn the huge money New Orleans is giving him.

NO RB Latavius Murray - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs. Cardinals

Murray finally had his breakout game with the Saints. It just took an Alvin Kamara injury to do so. And he may get another chance Sunday as Kamara is still dealing with his ankle and knee injuries and has not returned to practice yet. As last week showed, Murray just needs the ball in his hands enough times and he'll do good things with it. Arizona is No. 15 in PPR fantasy points allowed. Murray is a healthy RB2/Flex play again if Kamara is out again.

NO RB Latavius Murray - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 at Bears

Murray actually outgained Alvin Kamara on the ground, despite seeing three fewer carries. He also recorded the same number of yards receiving on four fewer catches and five fewer targets. And for the first time this season, Murray played more than 40 percent of the Saints' offensive snaps. That said, he still takes a backseat in the offense to Kamara, Michael Thomas and Jared Cook. However, if Kamara can't go on Sunday, Murray jumps into flex or even RB2 territory,

NO RB Latavius Murray - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Jaguars

Murray touched the football nine times against the Buccaneers, his highest total since Week 1. The bad news is he still didn't do much of anything with those opportunities, totaling just 34 yards. He's good for a catch or two and some extra points in PPR, but other than that, he's nothing more than a deep, deep flex option with four teams on a bye this week.

NO RB Latavius Murray - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs. Buccaneers

Murray just simply isn't getting the opportunities needed to make any sort of fantasy impact. He's seen just one-third of the offensive snaps in three of the first four games and received just five touches against the Cowboys for a mere 20 yards. Murray looks like nothing more than a desperation flex play going forward unless we start seeing a change in game plan, which doesn't seem to be happening anytime soon.

NO RB Latavius Murray - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 vs. Cowboys

Owners of Alvin Kamara may have had some concern that Murray was going to come and basically play Mark Ingram's role in the offense and take touches away from Kamara. That has been quickly diminishing. Murray has gone from eight touches to six touches to just two touches in Week 3. Until we see a change in their gameplan, it's very tough to trust Murray for much of anything fantasy-wise.
