Eagles' Murray mum on reported Lurie chat

RYAN MATHEWS is back.

LeSean McCoy is coming to town.

And DeMarco Murray is still here, though Murray did not want to talk to reporters Tuesday after dropping a new plot twist into the coming weekend's already-rich drama - a twist that offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur clearly did not appreciate.

The Eagles host the Buffalo Bills Sunday, and it seems likely they will have Mathews, their most effective runner, back from concussion limbo as they face McCoy, the franchise's all-time leading rusher, for the first time since trading him away last March.

Then there's Murray, signed for $40 million over five years to more or less replace McCoy; nobody really knows what his role will be, after Murray took the field for just 14 snaps at New England and expressed discontent with his role to Eagles chairman Jeffrey Lurie, on the flight home from the game that the Eagles hope saved their season, no less, according to ESPN reporter Ed Werder.
