Cowboys RB DeMarco Murray to have limited carries against Rams but not as limited as last week

Cowboys coach Jason Garrett said he wants to increase the workload of running back DeMarco Murray in Saturday’s pre-season game against the Rams, but not by much.

“It will still be a limited number,” Garrett said. “We don’t want him banging away out there for too long in this game.”

Murray, the team’s starting running back, touched the fall on five of the Cowboys’ first six plays in last week’s 28-20 loss to San Diego. Those plays produced a combined 30 yards before Murray left the contest and did not return.
