Chip Kelly concerned over DeMarco Murray's 2014 workload

The Philadelphia Eagles landed the most coveted running back available during the offseason by signing DeMarco Murray to a five-year, $42 million contract. The team has been particularly cautious with the running back during organized team activities and training camp, mostly due to the fact that Murray had an extremely onerous workload while leading the Cowboys to the playoffs during the 2014 season.

Eagles head coach Chip Kelly revealed that there are organizational concerns over how Murray will emerge after the pounding he took with the Cowboys last season, admitting that there are legitimate reasons to be worried about Murray being left with less in the tank this season as a result.
