November 12, 2008 Receiver Josh Morgan has been ruled out for the 49ers Week 11 game against the Rams, according to the Santa Rosa Times.
Our View:Morgan has caught 15 passes this year and only two touchdowns. The receiver doesn't have any fantasy value.
November 10, 2008 Josh Morgan had four catches for 54 yards and a touchdown while working with new quarterback Shaun Hill in San Francisco's 24-29 loss to in Arizona on Monday night.
Our View:It was Morgan's second touchdown of the year and he was a reliable option for Hill most of the night.
November 7, 2008 Josh Morgan will remain the 49ers' starting split end over Bryant Johnson, according to the Santa Rosa Press-Democrat.
Our View:Jason Hill will replace the injured Arnaz Battle as the 49ers' No. 3 receiver, leaving Bryant Johnson out of the mix as the fourth receiver. Morgan is tall and athletic, but the rookie lacks polish as a route runner, and will be a risky fantasy option against a tough and hard-hitting Cardinals' secondary in Week 10.
October 24, 2008 Josh Morgan was limited in Thursday's practice while dealing with a groin ailment, according to the SF Chronicle.
Our View:Morgan would allow Bryant Johnson another chance to reclaim his starting spot at split end if unable to play this weekend against Seattle.
October 20, 2008 Rookie Josh Morgan hauled in five receptions for 86 yards and a score in Sunday's loss to the Giants, and the 49ers have decided that he will remain the starting split end over Bryant Johnson, according to the Sacramento Bee.
Our View:The 49ers have some issues at quarterback with JT O'Sullivan, but Morgan is still worth targeting on the waiver wire while under the direction of coordinator Mike Martz. Bryant Johnson could fare well in the slot, as he did in Arizona, but will likely lose playing time to Arnaz Battle.
