Since being released by the Tennessee Titans earlier this offseason, former Pro Bowl running back DeMarco Murray has yet to ink a deal with another team ahead of the 2018 campaign.

Despite that being the case, there still remains are a market for Murray's services in the weeks leading up to the start of training camp as he revealed to Adam Schefter of ESPN on his podcast that he had spoken to “four or five teams” this offseason (h/t Josh Alper of Pro Football Talk).

“I’ve had a lot of discussions with four or five teams that I feel will be a great fit for me,” Murray said. “It’s all about being transparent and, for me, I’m not looking to lead the league in rushing yards. Obviously, I would work and do everything to give me the opportunity to do that, but it’s all about having an opportunity to get to the playoffs and have an opportunity to win a championship.”

Murray is coming off a campaign where he posted a career-low 659 rushing yards on 184 attempts for only 3.6 yards per carry. He rushed for more than 100 yards once while failing to break 70 yards in every other game. His season was cut abruptly short due to a torn MCL in his right knee that he suffered in Week 16 against the Los Angeles Rams.

However, he is only a season removed from a strong 2016 campaign where he finished third in the league with 1,287 rushing yards, which marked the third 1,000 rushing yard season of his career. The 30-year-old still has plenty to offer given that he is a proven commodity that has had much success in the league that could step in as a huge impact asset in the running game.

On the onset of the free agency period, he did have some significant interest from the likes of the Seattle Seahawks, Detriot Lions, and Miami Dolphins. Instead, he had chosen to decline the opportunity to join the New Orleans Saints, who are in need to have additional help in the backfield with Pro Bowler Mark Ingram out for the first month due to a four-game suspension.

With training camp quickly approaching, it may just be a matter of time before he finds his next home in the NFL to continue his career.
