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:
“... a supportive husband is an absolute requirement for professional women.... He is something she looks for, and when she finds him, she marries him.”
—Alice S. Rossi (b. 1922)
“Whether lawyer, politician or executive, the American who knows what’s good for his career seeks an institutional rather than an individual identity. He becomes the man from NBC or IBM. The institutional imprint furnishes him with pension, meaning, proofs of existence. A man without a company name is a man without a country.”
—Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
