With Raiders RB Maurice Jones-Drew (hand) looking unlikely to play against the Texans this weekend, HC Dennis Allen suggested that RBs Darren McFadden and Latavius Murray could share backfield duties. "We'll start with Darren, and it probably will be more series-wise with Latavius and Darren," Allen said. McFadden remains the superior fantasy play, but he's a shaky RB3 or flex. Murray shouldn't be in Week 2 fantasy lineups but is an intriguing stash.
