Jamal Morris brings veteran steadiness and tackling juice to Houston’s linebacker room
In the 2024 season, Jamal Morris started all 12 games for Houston and finished third on the team with 64 tackles, adding 5 tackles for loss and 1 sack; over his Houston career, he piled up 170 tackles in Scarlet and White and 178 total. He’s the type of linebacker coaches trust: physical, assignment-sound, and durable, with a big-game edge that showed in a season-high 10-tackle outing against No. 18/19 Iowa State. If your team wants a proven, high-floor defender who does the dirty work and sets the tone, Morris is a strong fit.
