With DeMarco Murray officially hitting free agency this week, the running back seems to be moving as quickly as a spurned ex-girlfriend in purging past relationships from social media. The 27-year old has coldly and methodically removed all references and mentions of the Dallas Cowboys – the only team Murray has played for since entering the NFL in 2011 – from Twitter.
Because Murray has elite talent and interest in his future is high, it didn’t take very long for this Cowboys cleansing to be noticed. Speculation is that the social media makeover comes as a result of Murray being very upset with Dallas in their contract negotiations (or lack thereof) and, as you’d expect, it’s not a great sign for the ‘Boys if they hope to retain Murray.
DeMarco Murray purged the cowboys from his twitter profile. All photos, references and connections. I guess he is fed up with not getting $

DeMarco Murray scrubbing his Twitter of any reference to #Cowboys at 4 a.m. signals only discontent. No way around it. He's clearly upset.

DeMarco Murray lashing out at #Cowboys via Twitter scrub is culmination of last 72 hours. He wants to be there, but they're not paying big $

Now we know why DeMarco Murray has deleted Cowboys' references on his Twitter account: team has not called him since last week, per source.

Sure, it may look like Murray is ready to move on and spark a new flame elsewhere…but would he really put in all this effort and go this far just to prove a point if he was really over the Cowboys? Hmmmm…..
