A knee injury in 2013 ruled him out for the rest of the season.^[3][4] This was considered a severe blow to Tyrone's hopes of winning the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship.^[5]

Morgan has won two All-Star Awards, in 2021 and 2024. ^[7]

He has also played association football for Dungannon Swifts,^[8] and represented Northern Ireland Under-18 schoolboys.^{[citation needed]}
