Alfred Morris admitted he “didn’t have his legs underneath him” in Houston when he first signed with the 49ers. A week and half later it appeared he had them back, at least enough to carry the ball 17 times for 84 yards in the first half. He was the work horse facing the Colts, which is just how he likes it.
Morris says he’s built for it. Built to be the work horse, built to carry the load. One of his mottos is “The more I do, the better I get.” Unfortunately, that hasn’t been the case for the 29 year old running back from Florida Atlantic who spent his last two years with the Cowboys in a complimentary/back up role.
