Professional Career
Morgan was selected in the 2001 NFL Draft by the Cleveland Browns, where he played until 2004. Morgan was traded to the Dallas Cowboys for Antonio Bryant, following a public dispute between Bryant and Cowboys head coach Bill Parcells. Morgan would have a rather mediocre season with the Cowboys in 2004, despite his rapid elevation on the depth chart following an injury to Terry Glenn. During the following offseason, Morgan performed poorly in an unexpected depth chart battle against Patrick Crayton and Parcells began to perceive him as uncompetitive. He was released in order for the Cowboys to pick up Peerless Price off waivers and was later signed by the Pittsburgh Steelers. During the 2005 regular season, Morgan recorded nine receptions for 150 yards and two touchdowns. On September 3, 2006, Morgan was cut by the Steelers, along with 21 other players, as the team reached its final roster. Morgan then signed with the Broncos on September 18 as a backup wide receiver. On September 1, 2007 he was released by the Broncos.

Famous quotes containing the words professional and/or career:
“We have been weakened in our resistance to the professional anti-Communists because we know in our hearts that our so-called democracy has excluded millions of citizens from a normal life and the normal American privileges of health, housing and education.”
—Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)
“It is a great many years since at the outset of my career I had to think seriously what life had to offer that was worth having. I came to the conclusion that the chief good for me was freedom to learn, think, and say what I pleased, when I pleased. I have acted on that conviction... and though strongly, and perhaps wisely, warned that I should probably come to grief, I am entirely satisfied with the results of the line of action I have adopted.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
