As it was expected, DeMarco Murray signed with the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday. Fans from both teams were quick to update their jerseys to reflect the change.
Eagles fans, apparently because they hadn’t already burned their LeSean McCoy jerseys, crudely put together new DeMarco Murray jerseys out of their old McCoy digs.

Meanwhile, Cowboys fans didn’t have the patience to refashion their Murray jerseys into whatever running back the Cowboys sign next. Instead, some fans went about setting their Murray jerseys on fire.

Hopefully, the catharsis was worth the cost of all those jerseys.
