A report surfaced earlier that once again sent the Eagles section of social media into meltdown as well as several Eagles specific websites.
The report, originally posted on Bleacher Report saw NFL Insider Jason Cole claim that DeMarco Murray wants to be cut by the Eagles so he can return to Dallas. This was nothing but pure speculation..but some of the big news sites took the story and ran with it..we on the other hand were a little more cautious
DeMarco Murray does not WANT to be cut, that's ridiculous. An NFL Exec said that he would HAVE to be cut for a reunion in Dallas to happen

..why? Because this happened about an hour ago.
DeMarco Murray confirmed had convo w/ Jeffrey Lurie; wanted to keep details to self. Asked if wanted to be back next year: "100 pct. Yes."

After being interviewed by the press, Murray claimed that:
- He DID indeed have a conversation with Jeffery Lurie and stated “Aren’t I allowed to talk to my boss?” before refusing to give details on what topics were discussed.
- That he DOES want to be an Eagles player next season and loves everything about the team.
- That he was naturally frustrated because the line were playing well and the other two backs were performing well.
That’s it..he isn’t going anywhere..there’s no absurd conspiracy theory about wanting to be cut..case closed..for now.
