Mike Morgan - LB

Mike Morgan was the Eagles' 17th-round pick in 1964. He played for the Eagles for 4 seasons, starting at left linebacker each year. From 1966 to 1970, he started just over half of his team's games.

He had no interceptions as a rookie, but did return a fumble for a touchdown. He had one interception in each of his other 3 seasons with the Birds.

Morgan was traded to the Redskins after the 1967 season, and then played for the Saints in 1969 and 1970.

He passed away in 1996 at age 54.

Morgan only had one Topps football card (1971, after his career was over). Retrocards has recently included him in their 1966 "Third Series" set.


Where's Waldo Mike?
