Jordan Morgan

No. 77 · 3rd season

The blind side is Jordan Morgan's now

Some jobs come with a lot of history attached. Protecting the quarterback's back is one of them — it's the position that guards against what the quarterback can't see coming, and it tends to go to someone the team trusts completely.

Morgan came into the league as a first-round pick, which means the Green Bay Packers made a loud public bet on him before he'd played a single professional snap. That kind of entry puts a number on your back in more ways than one.

Now the Packers have handed him the blind side, the anchor spot of a rebuilt offensive line. That's a statement — not a tryout, not a committee situation. His.

For a young player still building his résumé, this is the moment the volume goes up. The Packers are counting on him to hold one of the hardest assignments in football, and they've decided he's ready.
