Raiders running back Latavius Murray is primed to take the lead role that awaits him for this upcoming season, per the team website.
Murray will be the Raiders' featured back after the departure of Darren McFadden, and he's eager to enter that top spot.
It’s a great feeling, but every day I have to go in there knowing I need to get better every day,” Murray said. “I need to play like it’s a new year. Last season is just last season and the year before that it was the year before that. Every season is a new year for me and it’s a year I have to go out and prove something.”
Murray rushed for 424 yards and two touchdowns last season, while also posting an impressive 5.2 yards per carry.
