Daily News | New Eagles linebacker Nicholas Morrow has carried his underdog mindset from D-III to the NFL
After he paid his own way to play at Division III Greenville University in rural Illinois, 50 miles east of St. Louis, Morrow arrived in the league as an undrafted free agent, signed by the Raiders in 2017.
“I think I showed I’m someone who’s durable, I proved I can last an entire season,” Morrow said Wednesday afternoon during his introductory news conference at the NovaCare Complex. “I’m excited to be here. The culture, the tradition. The things the [Eagles] did last year, making it to the Super Bowl, we competed against them — they’re a tough team.”
“I’m a versatile player,” the 6-foot, 225-pound Morrow said. “I’ve played MIKE, I’ve played WILL, I’ve played SAM. I’ve played in a 4-3, I’ve played in match defenses, man defenses — I’ve kind of played it all. I’m here to play football and defense. The biggest thing for me is competing snap to snap.”
