the Albany linebacker who made stops, splash plays, and big-game noise
In the 2012 season, Jon Morgan was a disruptive, assignment-sound inside linebacker for Albany, starting all 11 games and leading the team with 72 tackles, while also adding three interceptions and two blocked kicks. Earlier profiles describe him as a physical, high-energy defender with strong trust from teammates and a knack for showing up in key moments, including a 21-yard fumble return touchdown and a 2012 NEC Defensive Player of the Week honor. The fit screams “tone-setter” for a defense that values instincts, range, and playmaking beyond the box score.
