Dallas Cowboy rookie running back, DeMarco Murray, had a record breaking day against the St. Louis Rams on Sunday. Murray rushed for a franchise record 253 yards. His big day prompted congratulations from two of the greatest players ever to wear the star.
@Tony Dorsett – “D.Murray congratulations on your performance today for the Cowboys”
@EmmittSmith22- “congrats to @DeMarcoMurray AWESOME job …we needed this; In order to be the best, you must be consistent for a long time. Hopefully this is the start of things to come.”
Find out Murray’s tweeter response and which of the two he might be meeting this week, after the break:
Here’s Murray’s tweeter response to Emmitt:
@DeMarcoMurray - “@EmmittSmith22 appreciate it. Have looked up to you all my life!”
Apparently, Smith talked to Murray after the game and congratulated him. And Murray believes he’ll get a chance to meet Tony Dorsett in person on Tuesday. Apparently, the greats want to welcome the kid to the club properly.
