The Minnesota Vikings have signed former Oakland Raiders running back Latavius Murray.
Murray was selected by the Raiders in the sixth round of the 2013 NFL Draft. He has led Oakland in rushing in each of the past two seasons and was named to the Pro Bowl in 2015.
The 27-year-old is coming off a season in which he piled up 788 rushing yards and a career-best 12 rushing touchdowns to go with 33 receptions for a career-high 264 receiving yards.
A native of Titusville, Fla., Murray joins a Minnesota backfield that finished last in the NFL in rushing yards in 2016.
