Morgan records a top-10 vertical leap among receivers and runs 4.53 in 40 at NFL Combine

Former Nebraska receiver Stanley Morgan prides himself on competing with a "savage mentality."

His 38.5-inch vertical leap tied for seventh among all receivers at the annual testing ground for NFL prospects.

After measuring 6-foot and 202 pounds, Morgan ran 40-yard dash times of 4.53 seconds and :04.58, which didn't rank among the top 15 wideouts in Indy but were fast enough to maintain his stock as a potential pick in the NFL Draft April 25-27.

A native of New Orleans, Morgan ended his Nebraska career as the program's all-time leader in receptions (189) and receiving yards (2,747).
