(S5) - Weekend PT #5 - Reflections

[Roly]

Darren Morris had a tough season. Not only on the field as a rookie in the NSFL, but as an individual. After suffering from an almost-career ending injury sustained before the DSFL championships last season, Morris struggled to return to form. Falling in the draft from a pre-injury consensus first round pick, Morris ended up with Arizona at pick 12. It very nearly almost didn’t pay off for the Outlaws, since according to sources he was absent from the workout room for nearly 7 weeks until he finally started making progress in the latter half of the NSFL season. After that, he’s taken off and full-heartedly embraced his continued development. In the drastic turnaround he’s resurged and become a higher contributing member of the playoff-bound Outlaw defense. Despite being injured for most of the season, Morris did admirably putting up 3 interceptions, a fumble recovery and 9 pass deflections. His biggest moment came stopping Sabercat’s Jackson on the 2-yard line with a game-winning tackle in week 9.
