Scouting Report: Strengths
- Has the quick, agile feet and fluid hips to mirror quickness and change direction underneath. But he’s at his best facing the action.
- A well-put-together athlete with a strong build. Plays fast and flies to the ball with accurate angles.
- His ball skills are very good. Morgan tracks the ball well downfield and has the hands and coordination to come away with interceptions even when Morgan isn’t targeted often.
- Good speed in pursuit with the chase skills to track down the ballcarrier.
- Has smooth body control with the fluid ability to plant and redirect in any direction. Plays fast and decisive, arriving to the play with fierce intentions.
- Has the violent hands to discard receivers and smaller tight ends, and he is a sure tackler. In coverage, he shows good instincts when sitting back in zone, with click-and-close ability and good ball tracking.
- Flashes good ball skills. Morgan has the fluidity and change-of-direction ability to mirror quicker receivers underneath.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Needs to develop a better understanding of route combinations and better overall vision.
- Not an explosive player and needs to show better bend and flexibility in his drops - plays too high.
- Rght now he’s only capable of playing in trail position, and even then he’d likely be draw a lot of flags.
