Good article about Jordan Morgan finally getting a just to play his natural position at LT. https://www.channel3000.com/news/top...4f784e5b5.html

After playing exclusively at left tackle both at Marana High School in Tucson, Ariz., and at the University of Arizona, the 6-foot-5, 311-pound Morgan played right guard and left guard in his six games of regular-season action as a rookie in 2024 before a shoulder injury that dated back to training camp landed him on season-ending injured reserve.

Last season, Morgan played in all 17 of the Packers’ regular-season games, starting 12 — seven at right guard, two at left guard, two at right tackle and one at left tackle. And that one start at left tackle came in the meaningless regular-season finale at Minnesota, where only a few of the Packers’ front-line players saw action.

Last month, Pro Football Hall of Fame left tackle (and University of Wisconsin legend) Joe Thomas visited Lambeau Field during Phase II of the Packers’ offseason program and spent time with Morgan, critiquing his film and watching him practice.

He came away impressed by Morgan’s footwork, hand placement and overall technique in practice and struggled to find too many flaws in the film.

“He's a great athlete. He's got exceptional footwork. He's powerful,” said Thomas, who was a 10-time All-Pro and eight-time Pro Bowler in 11 seasons with the Cleveland Browns.

“I mean, I was sitting there waiting to give him a bunch of tips about things that I thought he could do a better job of [while] we watched film that morning, and I said to him, ‘Honestly, buddy, there's a couple little things that I would do differently if it was me, but that's more specific to just how I played, and it's not like it's better or worse than what you're doing.’

“We talked about a few things in general, but overall, I really was impressed with how he moved the fastidiousness with which he approached his craft.”

I saw MiLF comments on Morgan. Says he has shown a lot of improvement and taken leadership and blah blah. To me this was cover for "we fucked up playing him out of position and its all on us" Trying to shift it to "we developed him and he's finally ready to have a great year". Truth is he was always ready to play LT but the fucked it up.

They had injuries and needed to move talented players elsewhere. If Rasheed Wallace wasn't the sixth best O lineman and only suited to play LT, Morgan might not have moved.

Just so you know. Belton got some second team snaps at RT.
