Albert Breer from NFL Network said that Sam Bradford is actively recruiting DeMarco Murray to play in Philly and he is already proving useful for Chip Kelly.

Bradford and Murray were roommates at school and came up together where they go back to their days at Oklahoma. It is known that there is a history between Murray and Bradford.

According to reports DeMarco Murray will visit the Eagles on Thursday, and Cowboys offered him a deal worth $5 million per year. Murray totaled 13 rushing yards and ran also for an NFL-best 1,845 yards for the Cowboys in 2014.

Murray will have to lower his expectations, and when he does the Eagles may see it as a bargain to land him, thats because no one has been able to meet Murray’s demands which will make on his contract with them.

The Eagles pursuit of Murray would not have been conceivable two weeks ago. Murray is PFT’s top-rated unsigned free agent and no other free agent has had quite as much intrigue swirling about the decision-making process of Murray.

He’d reunite with his former No. 1 overall pick by the Rams in the 2010 draft, Oklahoma teammate Sam Bradford, that if he agreed to a deal with the Eagles which traded Nick Foles for Bradford on Tuesday.

The Oklahoma Kappa chapter at the University of Oklahoma closed and suspended fraternity’s members as the statement of the national SAE organization said. also the members involved with the incident could have their membership privileges revoked permanently.

They felt sorry in their statement and disgusted that any member would act like that. they apologized for the unacceptable and racist behavior of the individuals in the video.

” the online statement read. “Furthermore, we are embarrassed by this video and offer our empathy not only to anyone outside the organization who is offended but also to our brothers who come from a wide range of
backgrounds, cultures and ethnicities.”

The investigation is still running in university to find which members of the fraternity participated in the chant. Just one person on the bus objected to the racist refrain, this person till now is anonymous, he recorded a 10-second video of the scene on the bus after that he sent it to the black student organization which called Unheard and they posted the video on Twitter.
