Rookie center Jimmy Morrissey was the Las Vegas Raiders’ final pick of the NFL Draft earlier this month, and his eagerness to be a last-minute addition to Senior Bowl may have earned him a spot in the Silver and Black.
On the eve of 2021 Reese’s Senior Bowl — which took place on Jan. 30 in Mobile, Alabama — executive director Jim Nagy needed to add an offensive lineman because of injuries that occurred during the week. Nagy knew Morrissey was working out about an hour’s drive away in Pensacola, Florida, so he called the former Pitt center to see if he would be interested in playing in the game on very short notice.
