My Take
Mike Morgan earns my respect the hard way. A 6-foot-4 linebacker out of Dallas, he came through powerhouse USC and then clawed into the NFL as an undrafted free agent with Seattle in 2011. Going undrafted and still making a roster is brutal; it demands not just talent but a refusal to accept the verdict others hand you. That stubborn self-belief is what I find compelling. Scouts passed on him, and he answered by simply not quitting. The Texas frame is impressive, but the bigger thing he carried onto the field was sheer will, and I hope he's passing that grit forward.
